It seems, something happend with Cosmos-2313 (1995-028A)
since two dozen of pieces associated with this object are tracking by SpaceCom.
Probably, this object may be intersting for visual observing due to
it's big dimensions and irregular form (if it had exploded) prior to
it's natural decay. Here is some TLEs for 23596 and new objects.
Excuse me for the long message but I think some of SeeSat members may
not have these elemenents and this information is of general interest.

Best regards,
    Vladimir Agapov.
