#26085 = 00-  8 E = Globalstar 63 Delta 2 r

SpaceCom has issued its first decay notice for this, predicting the
decay for May 15 05:22 +-4d at 5.8 N, 76.6 E. I estimate May 15 23:43
+-2d.

This enters eclipse near 48 deg S at about 18:00 local time while
southbound. Eclipse exit occurs while northbound near 32 deg N at 03:30
local time.

The latest elset is:
Gbstr 63 Del r   7.0  2.0  0.0  5.5 d   15       368 x 179 km
1 26085U 00008E   00129.57157639  .01410435  11058-4  74030-3 0  1956
2 26085  49.5344 252.2705 0142448 289.5282  69.0368 16.00326914 13787
