I now predict the decay of the Ikonos Orbit Adjust Module, #25920, for
September 28 19:39 UTC +-90m. This puts it southbound over the S
Pacific. If it survives, it may still decay northbound across Europe
from S Italy at 20:26 UTC to Berlin (20:29) and Oslo (20:31).

My predicted elset for the final rev:
Ikonos OrbAdjMod                                 173 x 111 km
1 25920U 99051B   99271.78427620  .81204933  36486+1  54526-3 0 90291
2 25920  97.6989 337.5422 0047503 184.5965 175.3597 16.49132839   633
