On 7 june 1996 at 22h07m.UT (4 min.before Mir) to 22h10m.UT. I saw 18
objects,some are faint, magnitude 6 or 7 and moving from west to east.Some
objects are flashing. All these objects are in the path of the Mir. The
width of the path: 5 degrees. Center of observing point: RA.15h 54.7
m.Dec.+12 Deg.50 m.
Observing instrument: Binocular 10 x 50.

It was very spectacular to see this train of objects !
