Brad Young asked: > Did you see HST and the UNID? or was it a second flare of HST? Saw them both at the same time, with HST several degrees higher in the sky. I haven't seen any reports that anyone else saw it. I do have one report from San Antonio that it was not seen by someone who did see HST. Regarding the double flares on July 3, the HST weekly timeline that includes that day is online now but still seems not to cover the exact time of that report. http://www.stsci.edu/ftp/observing/weekly_timeline/timeline_06_27_05 Regarding HST flares (a.k.a. glints), besides the aft shroud are the aperture door (which can be open or closed) and just a good reflection from the entire length of it at once. Perhaps another possibility may be actually to see it while it's slewing from one target to another. Different item.
