Date 2011-07-04 When I followed the NOSS 3-5 duo was easily visible to the naked eye low Souteast. The B-object brigthened to magnitude +1.5 at about 00:31:06 and this lasted about 39 seconds. The A-object brightened to magnitude +2.8 at about 00:31:33 lasting about 18 seconds. Then they became rather faint. I was thinking about shadow entry but predictions show the duo still visible for many seconds. This must be a phase-effect w.r.t. satellites attitude.
