Hello All, Oct 21, 2000 2343 UTC (Note my format change reporting recat objects) RE: Update on monthly changes of OIG/GSFC Satellite Situation Report Re-cataloged objects are those which the launch ID number has been assigned to a NORAD number designation _different_ than the original. Significant name changes are defined as those clearly not same object. In other cases, name is similar, but generally more precise in nature. ========================================================================== Per current OIG/GSFC Satellite Situation Report release of Sept 30, 2000 Oct 2000 41/09 & 41/08 2 re-catalog items / 3 name changes The following listings are of discrepancies and/or corrections found in comparison of the Satellite Situation Reports Sept '00 v41#09 and Aug '00 v41#08 Note: No search made for launch/decay date conflicts.
