    #26355 = 00- 23 B = Cosmos 2370 Soyuz rocket
    
    The latest elset is:
    C 2370 Soyuz r   6.0  3.0  0.0  5.0 d   15       224 x 166 km
    1 26355U 00023B   00126.40294107  .04909162  76190-5  85539-3 0   142
    2 26355  64.7697  91.6584 0044610  62.0582 298.5250 16.29171736   300
    
    This shows this running 10 seconds early against the predictions I
    posted on my Decay Watch page yesterday. I put the decay at May 6 12:43
    +-6h near 12.4 N, 154.0 W, which is on a southbound pass over the
    Pacific close to the time it passes over Honolulu, Hawaii, at 12:40 UTC
    on the final orbit above. SpaceCom's decay point is a little further
    east on the previous orbit at May 6 11:16 +-15h near 23.6 N, 136.9 W.
