Subject:[SLR-Mail] No.2223: SLR orbit predictions for GPS-36
Author:Krzysztof Sosnica
Content:Author: Krzysztof Sosnica/AIUB/CODE

Dear colleagues,

Due to the deactivation of the last GPS satellite equipped with the
laser retroreflector array, namely GPS-36 (PRN: 6, COSPAR: 9401601), the
Center of Orbit Determination in Europe (CODE) is not providing the SLR
orbit predictions for this satellite anymore. However, we will start
providing orbit predictions as soon as the satellite is possibly
reactivated and the microwave orbit solution is feasible.
Following the resolution of the 18th International Laser Workshop in
Fujiyoshida, Japan, we provide SLR orbit predictions for all GLONASS
satellites and daily Quick-Look Residual Analysis Reports including as
well all GLONASS satellites.

Sincerely,
Krzysztof Sosnica
Astronomical Institute, University of Bern, CODE
