Hi All, A colleague reported me about an observation of an Iridium-type flare in the sky some days ago. I checked out <http://www.heavens-above.com> looking for the satellite which produced this flare, but I could not find any one which would fit with the observation (according with Heavens Above, no Iridiums or another satellites passed at that time). Does anyone know what satellite produced that flare? The observation data are as follows: Location: Palmones (Cadiz, Spain) / N36.183 W5.433. Date: February 11, 2001. Time: 18:57 CET (17:57 GMT). Azimuth: SSW - SW approx. Altitude: 20 - 22 degrees. The weather is changing continously here in Cadiz, so It is hard to make observations. I hope to see Mir before it re-enters in the atmosphere. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you very much in advance for your replies.
