It is possible that this suffered a partial breakup during this period, leading to a reduction in drag and a prolonged lifetime. Judging from the elset numbers, three elsets were generated but are not (yet) available via OIG. An evolution through the above three elsets leads a decay near perigee on the last one, to the south of Australia. It is possible, though, that it survived for one more rev as SpaceCom suggests. _____________________________________________________________________ Object: #26502 = 00- 49 F = Raduga-1 5 aux motor Decay predictions: Source Prediction made Predicted decay at Latitude Longitude UTC UTC deg deg SpaceCom May 22 04:30 May 23 03:51 +-14h 33.0 S 66.7 E SatEvo May 22 16:25 May 23 03:35 +-7h 9.5 N 22.9 E Latest elset: Raduga-1 5 aux motor 1621 x 101 km 1 26502U 00049F 01142.52847462 .90637643 10895-4 20113-2 0 3824 2 26502 46.5615 149.6460 1050095 135.3611 309.9128 14.09583314 8710 SatEvo prediction: Raduga-1 5 aux motor 1264 x 99 km 1 26502U 00049F 01142.79178210 1.20931190 59731+0 21457-2 0 93827 2 26502 46.5418 148.4162 0824962 136.5813 230.2168 14.63696662 8750 Raduga-1 5 aux motor 746 x 94 km 1 26502U 00049F 01143.05731431 2.30990200 34711+1 24505-2 0 93825 2 26502 46.5144 147.0482 0478921 137.9401 225.8362 15.48923940 8790 Raduga-1 5 aux motor 545 x 92 km 1 26502U 00049F 01143.12092936 3.42597557 96589+1 27378-2 0 93827 2 26502 46.5058 146.6892 0338059 138.2969 224.3295 15.84118698 8801 Note: The latest elset shows it running 9 min early against yesterday's SatEvo prediction.
