Moreover the fp was longer than in the early transit between the bright flashes. 4) stoptime is not real, my electronic chronograph failed, battery empty.

If comments start with L it concerns a flare. In some cases teh azimuth of both satellite and sun are given. In comments the position of the object is roughly indicated in format hhmm+dd aaa!ee in which hhmm is the right ascension sign of declination as separator dd is the declination aaa is the azimuth (north = 0) ee is the altitude ! (exclamation mark is separator) These coordinates are those obtained from prediction by Guide 8 with the most recent TLE's available.
