I suppose that that maneuver while clearing the launch tower is normal (?)

Here are different data

They should now be interpreted as 'no later than' dates.Many objects are temporarily lost when the orbit changes.When satellites maneuver, or as here, due to the increasing friction of the atmosphere. For example, object D.An extreme example is O3b mPower 5 and 6, where there have been no TLEs for weeks.Subjectively, I think that this has increased compared to before. Maybe due to too many new objects?Or is the impression misleading?
In UN document ST/SG/SER.E/1199 Russia has registered two objects from the Angara launch:the Габаритно-массовый макет as expected in a 1455 min orbit, and the objectАДВ.00.00.000-01 in a 201 x 457 km orbit.The ADV object is described as "Testing of service platform on-board systems in the outer space environment and achievement of flight qualification of the platform" It is recorded as reentering on Apr 21 and as being 2024-069B.This is presumably the 6U cubesat?There is NO registration entry for Gagarinets.
