Colin,
I can confirm that DANDE is object 39267, 2013-055C.
So now the following IDs for the objects of the Falcon 9 launch
are certain:
39265, 2013-055A is Cassiope
39266, 2013-055B is CUSat 1&2
39267, 2013-055C is DANDE
39268, 2013-055D is POPACS (1,2 or 3)
39269, 2013-055E is POPACS (1,2 or 3)
39270, 2013-055F is POPACS (1,2 or 3)
39271, 2013-055G is Falcon 9 R/B.
73,
Nico PA0DLO

Looking forward to "Qs" with you all today from FM16US. We will try to
start early on Oct. !2. Official starting time is 1400 UTC until 2100 UTC.
On Sunday 13 we start at 1600 - 2100 UTC.
We have a few good passes on AO7, FO29, and VO52. SO50 is always iffy with
the images in the TS 2000.
Call sign will either be K4AMG or W4FOS.
WX CONDX showers for this outside event.
God Bless

Space News story on SkySat-1 and SkySat-2 being shipped to Russia for
upcoming launch.

s-launch-of-first-satellites-draws-near
"Skybox?s satellites weigh approximately 100 kilograms and are slightly
larger than the miniature refrigerators often found in college dormitory
rooms. Although the satellites dwarf the 1-kilogram cubesats many of the
firm?s executives, including founders Berkenstock and Julian Mann, worked on
in the Stanford laboratory ? their professor at Stanford, Bob Twiggs, helped
to invent the tiny spacecraft ? the CubeSat approach is readily apparent at
Skybox headquarters. The Skybox design team created satellites capable of
gathering 1-meter resolution imagery while eschewing costly features that
would raise the price of each satellite."
