Hello friends, We had a 2234 EDT mag +1.3 pass of the ISS WNW -> ENE with mag -4 flare last night (8/1). The earlier pass at dusk (2057 EDT) was noticeably brighter than the predicted 0.0, too. Getting ready to start seriously applying the 8" LX200 & LXsat to tracking.... any hints/accumulated wisdom appreciated. Kind regards, Harry 43.0N 73.1W (NW CT) Mark Hampton wrote: > Hi all, > Saw my best pass of ISS so far last at just before > 23:00 local time (2200UT) along with my observing > buddy Jason Evans.
