[LINK] 10th anniversary of MIR's de-orbit - will Aussat B3 be next?

[Philip Argy]

At 5.59 am UTC today we passed the 10th anniversary of MIR's de-orbit and
dumping into the South Pacific.  A bit ironic that Aussat admitted last week
that its B3 bird had fallen out of geosynchronous orbit and had run out of
fuel to re-position itself.  I wonder where it will end up!
