Hi folks,
After a few weeks of quiet, at least three artsats have landed on
NEOCP. We have :
A117bbx, which turns out to link to A116qre from May 6, and in
turn links to a bunch of tracklets from early in the year that started
with TMG0091 on February 7. (Actually, that got us precovery tracklets
from early January.)
A117bbC, which is linked to A116XpY (not an NEOCP object; ATLAS
submitted it as an unidentified artsat earlier);
A117dIm, linked to A117b6z (also submitted as unidentified junk).
I've done my usual procedure of generating TLEs from the linked
orbits and posting those to GitHub, and looking to see if we got
further tracklets of these objects in recent months. Aside from linking
A117bbx to A116qre (and thence to TMG0091), I had no such luck.
