Missed pasting the splits! 2000. "03-09A","20:01:57.0",13.290,55.13,2 "03-09A","20:02:27.8",14.703,82.58,2 "03-09A","20:03:10.3",13.290,55.13,2 "03-09A","20:03:40.7",00.615,60.32,2 1B was about time predicted, but again I can't make the splits fit. "03-09B","20:59:45.9",07.807,26.22,2 "03-09B","21:00:15.4",06.859,33.37,2 "03-09B","21:00:40.5",06.000,37.27,2 are too far right of the Beehive and Pollux on the first two "03-09B","20:59:45.9",08.139,24.02,2 "03-09B","21:00:15.4",07.245,30.60,2 do not give any bright split (1/15 above) for the third point. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Björn Gimle" <b_gimle@algonet.se> To: "Ted Molczan" <molczan@rogers.com>; "SeeSat-L" <SeeSat-L@satobs.org> Cc: <DSat@smartgroups.com> Sent: Friday, April 25, 2003 10:53 PM Subject: Re: TJM obs of 2003 Apr 25 UTC; IGS 1A and IB elements - EARLY! > IGS 1A was 116 s early on this elset (site 5919). > Although I am not certain about these splits, the first one was done at > 1-power between zeta and eta Uma, and the last one was in a tight pair of > rather bright stars (inclination may be higher?).
