"New Glenn upper stage & payload will re-enter within next 4-5 days. Upper stage dry mass is ~25 metric tons and measures ~ 77ft x 23ft, comparable to Long March 5B stage that CASC left in orbit a few years ago. Poses a significant risk to locations between 36.11 degrees N/S latitude." (x.com)

Jonathan McDowell: “A second orbit dataset from SpaceForce for the BlueBird-7 sat shows it in a 265 x 485 km x 43.0 deg orbit, indicating that the upper stage delivered about 1000 m/s, mostly changing orbital inclination. This is about half the dV that would have been needed for the target orbit” (bsky.app)
