rob's iridium app predicted daylight flare -8.4 mag of iridium 81, (25468 98051B?) at 2341:18 UT 12 jan at my +81/060 with the sun ~ +3.1 elev. some high clouds noted, so I was skeptical, although I have seen venus 1x in the daylight. so I sat back in a comfy chair and stared at the clouds 1x starting at 2341 and counting, and sure enough, flare noted 2341:18 +/- :02 and lasted for about 2 to 3 seconds. ******************************************* Paul Gabriel 26.24310N 098.21635W 33m the stars at night are big & bright...... gabriel305@earthlink.net titanp150 / win95C / calypso ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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
