    Hi folks:
      After a long spell of bad weather  I manage to view bright ( mag 0.0)
    Mir sailed above Venus from my kitchen window. I also videotaped it
    through a color 0.01 lux 1/2"ccd. Another month there will be no more
    Mir. ( Last nite was a better pass but I remembered the WRONG time).
      Ten minutes later  I aslso videotaped  and  photographed Iridium #33
    put out a mag minus 4 flare, not far from Canupus from my study window.
