    Hello everyone,
    
    The Atlas F decayer is making nice evening passes these days as seen from
    north of the equator. Its perigee is near 30 deg. N lat., so it's worth
    watching till its decay.
    
    I tried myself to spot it from my place at the 02:40 UT pass on the 26th but saw
    nothing using naked eye, 7x35 and 20x80 binocs. It's supposed to be a big object
    about 20 meters long.
