When I send my obs of this morning to Seesat-L, I saw Bjorns message of the NOSS-3 3 observation. Using Ted's TLE's I saw I got a nice pass this morning and decided to give it a try. The thin clouds had gone almost and the sky was still dark enough.

A flashpatern of alternate longer and shorter periods. After ending the obs of the rocket I looked for the two NOSS sats. Did see 1 object at about the right time and place, but it was also flashing at about 6 to 7 sec. Lost it after a few flashes in the brighter getting pre-dawn sky. It was on the same track as 05- 04 C. 2005: 85 obs PPAS: 13676 obs Greetings and clear, dark skies Leo Barhorst, Medemblik NL Cospar 4252 52.76350 N 5.09114 E 2 m ASL http://www.home.zonnet.nl/leobarhorst/index.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
