I have been watcing these trackers for the last hour or so and this thing has been gaining altitude the whole time and and the speed has been very slowly decreasing. Seems odd. There was a counter for re-entry with over an hour, and now it changed to "Possible Reentry 43 minutes ago. Check media for visual confirmation."
I haven't been paying attention to this, but I do know that things can skip off the atmosphere kind of like a stone on a lake if they have the right angle of attack through the atmosphere.
