As it is getting lower and lower and nearer to uncontrolled reentry mid-2012 (current orbit and SatEvo suggests August reentry date), it is vital that we keep good track of this satellite (03-009B). The orbit is quickly deteriorating and we should strive for a near-continuous coverage to monitor the descend. This could be a nice summer project for the N-hemisphere observers and provide both observers and analysts with an interesting case. - Marco ----- Dr Marco Langbroek - SatTrackCam Leiden, the Netherlands. e-mail: sattrackcam@wanadoo.nl Cospar 4353 (Leiden): 52.15412 N, 4.49081 E (WGS84), +0 m ASL Cospar 4354 (De Wilck): 52.11685 N, 4.56016 E (WGS84), -2 m ASL Station (b)log: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com Twitter: @Marco_Langbroek ----- _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-l
