Thanks Cees and Ron for your reports, I Managed to observe Telkom 3(12-44A/38744) again last night around 20:16UTC almost same path as the day before. Very nice flashing with (only)8 timings measured, 4.27x,3.11s,4.09s,2.91s,4.64s,3.17s,4.19s,2.56s. These are included the Bright flares and short secundary flashes. It seems, more or less, to match Cees timings if I consider the repeating pattern, at least a rotation speed of about 11s. It is an easy naked eye object ! gr, tristan Bruges, Belgium BWGS Op zo 25 aug. 2019 om 18:37 schreef ronlee--- via Seesat-l < seesat-l_at_satobs.org>: > Here is my report on these objects from soon after the launch failure: > > http://satobs.org/seesat/Aug-2012/0193.html > > "2) EXPRESS MD2, 38745, 2012-044-B > > Appeared around 3:04:00 UT.
