Hi All, At approx 8:28 UT 13 FEb, I observed a very bright (~1 mag) satellite moving virtually due north between Orion and Gemini, from New Plymouth, New Zealand (39.1deg South,174.1 deg East). I have done a search on HeavensAbove, and the plotted sky track agrees with Lacrosse 4, but is almost a *half hour late*. No other object remotely fits the path and brightness. It faded into the Earth's shadow about 5 degrees SE of Castor and Pollux. Any ideas as to what it was? Cheers Rod Austin -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
