Hi Ted and Frits
Ted Molczan pointed out to me that ISS was visible.
I used day 190 TLE.
I now recall ISS made orbitcorrections early this month.
Using day 177 TLE I got:
98- 67A 22h00m26s 14h44 + 3 222ø 33ø 363 628 64ø -0.4
22h00m56s 15h57 + 9 203ø 45ø 363 502 52ø -1.1
22h01m26s 17h42 +15 164ø 52ø 363 452 41ø -1.5
22h01m57s 19h33 +18 125ø 45ø 363 502 43ø -1.2
So it was indeed ISS that was seen.
Greetings and clear, dark skies
