Three objects cataloged

62459 ( 24253A )
i=54.99°, A×P=476.32×469.14 km

62460 ( 24253B )
i=54.99°, A×P=476.40×469.26 km

62461 ( 24253C )
i=55.05°, A×P=475.43×356.84 km

Last one should be POEM-4, cataloged before achieving 350 km circular orbit perhaps.

If PSLV-C60/SpaDeX launches as scheduled from FLP, it will be the shortest period between two consecutive orbital launches for ISRO from same pad at 25.25 days after PSLV-C59/PROBA-3 launch on 5 December.

Previous shortest gap was 31.02 days between GSLV-F09/GSAT-9 and GSLV MkIII-D1/GSAT-19 from SLP.
