Kevin, my usual questions: Is the inserted time UTC? What is the FOV? Where is it? At 09:20 UTC I find 09880 at RA 10:00 Dec.-16 az 166 el 28 The az is consistent with a slight upward motion of the stars (assuming the FOV was horizontal) The stars would pass the FOV in 3.1 minutes, so the FOV would be 0.75 x 0.57 degrees At that pos, 09880 would move 2.0 deg/min, and it appears to pass the vertical FOV in 19 sec, which makes the vertical FOV 0.64 deg. (Or time is off, and the satellite was higher - 10 % slower 3 min earlier at 34 deg el) Time from double flash #1 to #4 is ~12.7 s; full period 4.25 s? I hate to do these calculations to find data, some of which Kevin might have already. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kevin Fetter" ... > MOLNIYA 1-36 > > http://www.kfetter.com/satvideo/120406/09880.wmv > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
