    #22876 = 93- 67 B = Cosmos 2265 r
    
    I calculate that this decayed at Mar 2 11:27 UTC +-45m at 41.5 N,
    142.6 E. This would put it on a northbound pass over Hokkaido, Japan,
    though it is quite possible that it survived to decay southbound over
    the W Atlantic between Baffin Island, NE Canada, and French Guiana, S
    America. SpaceCom gives Mar 2 11:47 +-2h at 71.8 N, 70.2 W in its final
    warning, but has yet to produce its post-decay report. The final elset
    is:
    Cosmos 2265 r    7.4  2.4  0.0  5.5 v   15       151 x 128 km
    1 22876U 93067B   00062.40956076  .27884499 -11857-5  27933-3 0  8675
    2 22876  82.8290 108.6702 0018129   9.8889 350.2559 16.49942093334188
    
    
    #25947 = 99- 58 E = Globalstar 31 Soyuz r
    
    SpaceCom's latest warning, posted at 07:06 UTC today, is for this decay
    to occur at Mar 4 02:37 +-1d. My current SatEvo prediction is for Mar 4
    01:57 +-8h. The latest elset is:
    Globlstar 31 r   6.0  3.0  0.0  4.5 d   19       260 x 166 km
    1 25947U 99058E   00062.57423749  .03462617  00000-0  75528-3 0  2483
    2 25947  51.9192 297.9593 0071662 207.5833 152.2110 16.22452490 20997
