Using the fact, that a SL-8 R/B ( 13752 ) passed by the rocket, I can determine an approx time the
rocket passed near a star.
The star was
TW Peg
RA (J2000.0): 22 03 59.50
declination +28 20 54.3
The rocket passed near it, within 10 seconds I would estimate of 23:57 UTC ( Dec 10 ).
It passed with 1/2 degree of that star, passing to the right of it.
So the predicted path using Ted's orbit, was approx 5 degrees west of where, the rocket was
observed to pass.
I observed the fuel dump, by simply pointing my video camera on the top of my telescope, at where
I could see the cloud like object:)
