from vector data sent by ralph mcgonahy. For use in estimating positions
in next perigee pass on july 8. I would guess a standard mag of 
about 3.5, so i think it would be binocular visible at ranges less
than 6000 Km ( 3700 miles)

The perigee height in the text is down to 120Km. I guess the Moon
will pump it up a bit, or it will suffer the fate of the mars climate
