My Decay Watch page carries decay notices for the new Progress rocket
and Lacrosse 3 rocket. Here is a summary - check the page for more
predicted elsets.

Note: This large bright object enters eclipse southbound near 33 deg S
in the evening sky and it leaves eclipse while northbound near 10 deg
S before dawn.

Note: This is obviously close to the orbital plane of the ISS. It
enters eclipse while northbound near 22 deg S in the evening sky and
leaves eclipse southbound near 46 deg N before dawn. I show this
decaying near a southbound equator crossing to the S of Mexico on the
final SatEvo-predicted orbit above.
