Object: #23501 = 95- 8 A = Cosmos 2306
Final decay analyses:
Source Prediction made Predicted decay at Latitude Longitude
UTC UTC deg deg
SpaceCom Oct 30 19:19 Oct 30 12:08 +-1h 44.2 S 154.2 W
SatEvo Oct 30 19:20 Oct 30 11:14 -30+60m 22.0 N 22.8 E
Final elset:

Note: This survived for longer than I was predicting just a few
hours before decay, and even longer if you accept SpaceCom's estimate.
I show it decaying northbound over NE Africa near the Libya/Egypt
border soon after the end of the orbit described by the above elset.
