I just saw a documentary on the apollo 13 disaster (or success depending
on how you look at it). They used the LEM for habitation on the return
trip to earth when the command module was crippled and then jettisoned
it in earth orbit before re-entry.

I was just curious, is the LEM still orbiting the earth or did the orbit
decay?

Thanks,
