It's unlikely you will notice any significant difference.

I guess now that the battery is exhausted, you'll have to blast it with your
laser and do the ranging experiments, it's
main mission objective.

Read the article, it explains satellite use and scaling to other bands.
Then understand what you have read.

I suspected that itwas a similar size to the Russian bird and that all would
have been ejected in one hit.
Perhaps I guessed incorrectly.

Spacetrack is predicting that CUTE 1.7 will decay on 10th October.
My predix software predicts that the first time the satellite hits terra firma
will be 19th December.
What do others think?

and currently in a GTO.
