My one classfd object was varying and faint by the time I found it and positions are poor, and I rejected it. This was 7816 (75-43A), 7->inv. Skymed 1 (31598) flared, max flare at 1:12:25 at mag +1. Skymed 2 (32376) did not flare (and was not predicted to) low in the east. Saw Vanguard 2 r/b (12), still my oldest object. Always a nice one to see. OT: Mercury in the SW and Comet Holmes "over" Algol sure nice sights, too. 04- 45 C 08-01-24 00:25:00 BY 38.3 2.0 4 9.6 M 5->6 07- 6 G 08-01-24 00:30:17 BY 164.9 0.3 20 8.24 A 3->5 1x Note 1 83- 10 A 08-01-24 00:57:53 BY Flare +3 1X 85-116 A 08-01-24 01:06:33 BY S 9 92- 20 A 08-01-24 01:08:38 BY S 8 69- 82 J 08-01-24 01:11:01 BY 19.2 1.0 5 4 M 7->7.5 Note 2 07- 23 A 08-01-24 01:12:48 BY 57.6 Flare +1 Notes: 1.
