The latest guesstimate is between 0100 and 0400 UTC tomorrow, but
trending later.


That's 6 o'clock tonight here in Goonyville.

FYI, next time check UStream. They had 2 channels with UARS tracking
maps. NASA Select doesn't do news that ain't in a flight plan.

was no sign of it when it went over here an hour ago. Seeing wasn't
especially good, but UARS is probably barely even warm yet.


Using Celestrak for the Keplerian elements and the 'Orbitron' tracking
program, you can see UARS track. The only problem may be that the orbit
is decaying so fast that the Keps cannot be updated often enough.

As I type this (2130 UTC), UARS now on an ascending pass in the southern
Pacific well off the coast of Chile, soon to be over Central America and
then Cuba.

How has HF been the last three days? The last time I listened, 18MHz was
open almost all night, and UARS was falling like a stock market index.


17m goes away here around sunset; 20m isn't much better. 40m was rocking
last night, but it was all RTTY dinosaurs.
