At 02.42.52 UT April 3 near Capella I was able to see all 3 in a telescopic
view with 30 magnification and a 1.4 degree field of view. As the pass
progressed only 2 were visible at same time, but could easily move ahead to
see the one in the lead. I followed them until they disappeared into the
earth's shadow. I was using an 8 inch dobs tracking manually.
