Camera at manual mode, "10 second" (= 10.7 second) exposure, wide field f2.8/7.41 mm. What these numbers mean: http://www.satobs.org/position/IODformat.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The evenings session, after the morning session reported on earlier. Cold (temperatures near zero), somewhat hazy conditions with moonlight, and twilight during the 05-016A pass. 05-016A was quite variable in brightness. When I picked it up in Cygnus at 17:22:00 in a blue stwilight sky it was bright, mag +1. It dimmed a bit, then got back to +1, then dimmed slowly, and at 17:23:23 UTC it completely disappeared in only a few seconds. The camera was open at that time and captured the disappearance. - Marco ----- Dr Marco Langbroek - SatTrackCam Leiden, Cospar 4353 Leiden, the Netherlands. 52.15412 N, 4.49081 E (WGS84), +0 m ASL SatTrackCam: http://home.wanadoo.nl/marco.langbroek/satcam.html Station (b)log: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com Atom RSS: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com/atom.xml e-mail: sattrackcam@wanadoo.nl ----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
