    Calsky no longer predicts this pass, however feeding the latest elsets into 
    Orbitron it indicates that this pass is still expected, and that the 
    altitude is such that it is definitely a pass of interest.
    
    Taking Calsky's latest predicted decay time (subsequent to that of the above 
    pass) and that of Space-Track together with the above pass prediction it is 
    definitely something I will be missing a little sleep to check on.   Because 
    of the timing my report will of necessity be brief whether I see anything or 
    not, and if anything is observed further details will follow about 5 hours 
    later.
