This time I'll actually type something before hitting send;)
The two burn maneuver is essentially a Hohmann transfer maneuver. The point
of the first burn becomes the new apogee or perigee (depending
to decay must also add
acceleration. (Gravity)

intersect the ISS exactly one orbit later. In theory that is. But the
difference in drag at that low altitude will usually be
