Hi everyone Here is the video of the Astras in a four hour dance last night. FOV 30 arc minutes with GPS time stamp as seen from the UK Initially the moon was close by , so some of the birds were a little faint , but they soon came out to play ;o) One of the chicks is still being a bit naughty , quite bright and out to the east ............I suspect "fowl" play ;o) http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/satcom_transits/astradance.gif In the shorter clip which I posted last night the unidentifed object moving north to south could be SleighSat ( Norad 251204 ) This high polar orbiting satellite is rapidly decaying and should re-enter early on the morning of December 25. http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/satcom_transits/object1a.GIF Have a Happy Christmas John ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
