The following updated elements are based on observations by Leo Barhorst, Cees Bassa, Russell Eberst, Alberto Rango, Dave Waterman and Marco Langbroek: NOSS 3-8 (A) 1014 x 1199 km 1 42058U 17011A 17081.14967525 0.00000000 00000-0 00000+0 0 07 2 42058 63.4408 98.9850 0123629 179.0619 181.0661 13.40841091 05 rms 0.02 from 37 observations March 21.13 - March 22.18 NOSS 3-8 (B) 1013 x 1199 km 1 42065U 17011B 17081.14958563 0.00000000 00000-0 00000+0 0 07 2 42065 63.4428 98.7921 0123872 179.1570 180.9687 13.40840368 01 rms 0.02 from 39 observations March 21.13 - March 22.18 The decrease in relative distance between the two payloads has virtually come to a halt and was ~50.5 km at epoch time of the above elsets. Orbital parameters are settling too, with the orbital period now very similar and the two orbital planes now about 0.2 deg apart in RAAN.
