    Mike was watching 90003 when a bright one crossed the field 
of view.  He later identified it as LRE H-2 Rk (01-038B, 
26899).  It was quite asymmetrical, very interesting.  It
might have been as bright as +4.5.  PPAS:

01- 38 B 04-07-03 03:59:57   EC  129.7 0.5   7 18.5   +5->i asymm

Here are clicks; note that two sharp flashes were about 4.8 
seconds apart:

2.77, 7.27, 3.73, 4.79
10.99, 2.77, 4.79
11.12, 2.60, 4.80
37.02
13.72, 4.77
13.83, 4.75

NOSS 2-1 trio (90-050C,D,E; 20691, 20692, 29642) was visible
in the northeast, north of and through Lyra, without binoculars 
in spite of the moonlight.  The outlier (object E) was brightest.

BCRC: 30.315N, 97.866W, 280m.
