The following rough elements closely fit Daniel Deak's single position of an UNID observed on 2007 July 22 UTC: http://satobs.org/seesat/Jul-2007/0201.html and the two positions that I extracted from Babak A. Tafreshi images of the propellant dump on June 15 UTC. 1 70000U 07166.77466843 .00000000 00000-0 00000-0 0 05 2 70000 61.4726 47.1740 0551647 203.5412 162.4100 13.68282431 05 They also agree with Daniel's observation that the object had just passed culmination. Predicted times should be accurate to within a few minutes; track errors are likely to be at least several degrees, depending upon elevation. Best to search with the unaided eye on high elevation passes, or wide field binoculars at lower elevations.
