    My email is now back to normal and we now have two decaying Cosmos
    satellites...
    
    #10860 = 78- 45 A = Cosmos 1005
    
    Current decay predictions:
       SpaceCom: Jun 14 19:15 +-2d        58.2 S    73.4 W
       SatEvo:   Jun 14 14:27 +-11h
    
    The latest elset...
    Cosmos 1005      5.0  1.5  0.0  5.4 v   15       212 x 201 km
    1 10860U 78045A   00164.54501969  .02318808 -94462-6  84342-3 0  4888
