thanks-- Do satellite burnups have a different color? Another reply told me they have blue [ion] trails. Of course, now that I am part of this list, I will always be able to figure it out! But do you think what I once saw was meteor or sat? IF YOU HAVE RECORDS, THEN THIS MIGHT HELP: I am in Brooklyn, New York City, 40.5770N, 73.9480W. February or March of1996 (i was looking for comet Hyakutake). Looking North, I believe. Moved W-->E, Red ball w/ small coma. NO TRAIL. Began in north about 25-30 degrees above horizon. moved east. went behind a small cloud, but never came out, in NE, about same elev. (In otherwords, Feb or March 1996, over the NorthEast United States!) Hope this info. helps! Thanks again, -Ben ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www2.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
