As of the above epoch of 05004C, it trailed 05004A by 7.52 s at the ascending node, roughly their operational separation, with little relative motion along-track. The Centaur continues its propulsive acceleration, which has reduced its mean altitude by at least 0.8 km since launch, and has reduced it flash period to less than 5 s.
