Wrong orbital data

[edit]

The apogee of the satellite is given as 180,100 km. However, the last transmissions were from 42.3 earth radii, which corresponds to roughly 270,000 km, and the satellite was still on the ascending leg of its orbit. So the true apogee must be even higher. QthTue (talk) 08:05, 29 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
