Wednesday night August 14 while watching ADEOS #24277 with binocs at
02.21.06 UTC saw an unknown cross path to be id with Skymap as Cosmos 1656
#15755. They were a close 48 miles apart.
I plan on looking for another close encounter with asteroid 2002 NY40 on
Saturday night which will be moving at 8 degrees per hour at a predicted
9mag. I will also look for sats passing thru if clear skies permit.
