    The pre-dated TLEs of XMM were not so bad after all. On Saturday
    8 April at 03:59:58 UT Swiss amateur astronomer Stefano Sposetti
    has captured XMM with his 10-inch telescope and a CCD camera. He
    found XMM 2 arcminutes from the position I had calculated, but
    13 seconds later than predicted.
    
    This is the second observation worldwide and the first from the
    northern hemisphere. I suppose the picture will be available
    on the net within a couple of days.
