    1997-82D (#25107) Iridium 48
    
    SPACECOM'S FINAL REPORT - prepared May 05, 06:35 UTC - shows the decay on
                     05 May, 06:13 UTC +/- 17 minutes (10.5°N, 07.3°E)
    on a descending pass over Nigeria.
    
    MPM + REENTRY delivers with the ELSET'S 01124.635...  - 01125.227... the decay 
    on               05 May, 06:15.5 UTC +/- 04 minutes (3.35°N, 07.23°E)
    on the same pass over the Gulf of Guinea.
    Beginning with the ELSET 0.1124.635... (Epoch 15:15 UTC) the following ELSET's
    showed very consistent a decay around 06:15 UTC. Only the last released ELSET
    was somewhat bizarre...
