This is for the pair's leader, NOSS 3-1(C)/USA 160(C): 26907 01 040C 8730 F 20050719085804000 56 35 2046100+340000 56 S+047 02 Seen with my 8x42, it went extremely close to epsilon Cygni, so that I wasn't certain if there was any space between them or not. Station 8730 is outside my apartment, 30.3086N, 97.7279W, 150m, quite light-polluted, although this pair was not difficult to see at all. I observed AMS 2 (10033, 77-044A) flashing brightly but was not able to get a position on it. Earlier, TOPEX (22076, 92-052A) was visible at +2.0 without binoculars for 30-40 seconds before shadow entry. Gravity Probe B (28230, 04-014A) was also visible at +2.0 for several seconds in the northeast, before culmination.
