#26355 = 00- 23 B = Cosmos 2370 Soyuz rocket SpaceCom issued the first decay warning for this yesterday at 19:53 UTC, but OIG became unreachable a couple of hours later, before enough elsets had appeared for my SatEvo analysis. SpaceCom predicted the decay for May 5 17:33 +-1d near 30.2 N, 128.5 E, but I now get May 6 16:30 +-12h near 13.0 N, 19.4 W, on an orbit that crosses Europe (in daylight) from Madrid to Helsinki. This enters eclipse near 60 deg N at about midnight local time just after its northern apex. Eclipse exit occurs southbound near 45 deg S at about 05:30 local time. The latest elset, overdue for an update, is: C 2370 Soyuz r 6.0 3.0 0.0 5.0 d 15 256 x 177 km 1 26355U 00023B 00125.35658708 .02853851 74425-5 90291-3 0 103 2 26355 64.7792 95.6314 0059487 62.3575 298.3643 16.21103029 131 See http://www.wingar.demon.co.uk/satevo/dkwatch/ for predicted elsets to decay.
