As far as I can tell, the three VR3X satellites were launched on 24th January 2021 and had an expected lifespan of 3 months. As they are most likely now orbital dust, can they be marked as ‘Inactive’ now in the database?
It looks like that the random OBJECTS/NORAD IDs we had assigned for them are still in orbit.
@blackeye is this 3-month lifespan for the orbit or for the functionality of the satellite?
Also, do you know if any of the VR3X was identified? If not, do we now possible NORAD IDs due to other characteristics (size, deployment altitude)?
If we have more info we can change them in the DB and mark them as inactive or even re-entered.
