Hi All, Based on the most recent elsets I can find, ISS is going to have a close encounter with Solwind Deb AM on Thursday, July 29th at about 4:46:55 UTC. This encounter will occur over longitude +144.2, latitude +5.1 (east-southeast of Palau Island) during the daytime, so there will be no opportunity to view it from the ground. Here's are the TLEs and output from COLA: ISS 1 25544U 98067A 99206.77427704 .00013592 00000-0 16797-3 0 7894 2 25544 51.5933 3.7065 0010119 137.9235 222.2461 15.60407240 38628 Solwind Deb AM 1 16084U 79017AM 99203.85703767 +.00021270 +00000-0 +24389-3 0 09068 2 16084 097.8749 155.9908 0008812 351.2227 008.9071 15.62079896773693 Date UTC Time Norad Name Range/OrbSep NdAng EphAge 7/29/1999 3:14:40.49 16084 Solwind Deb AM 45.0/ 1.3 88.1 +6.28 7/29/1999 4:00:49.01 16084 Solwind Deb AM 12.5/ 4.5 68.7 +6.31 7/29/1999 4:46:55.08 16084 Solwind Deb AM 4.2/ 1.3 71.4 +6.34 7/29/1999 5:33:03.60 16084 Solwind Deb AM 29.7/ 4.5 81.1 +6.37 7/29/1999 6:19:09.66 16084 Solwind Deb AM 37.0/ 1.4 87.8 +6.41 Ranges and orbital separations are in km.
