Something has de-orbited according to the NYT.

Jonathan McDowell, a retired astrophysicist who is an expert in space debris, said the United States Space Force, which tracks tens of thousands of objects in orbit, reported that an object it identified as the satellite dropped out of orbit on Monday. The Space Force has not identified the New Glenn upper stage, and some experts felt it was possible that it had mixed up the satellite with the stage. “The upper stage is the big mystery right now,” Dr. McDowell said.
