I tried to identify some of the Mir fragments I saw on June 15. Passage
time was close to 18 Boo.
I also think there are more objects in orbit than being catalogued by
USSPACECOM.
Are there any other observers who could identify their Mir debris observations ?
I will try to identify the other fragments.
22h37m33.5s 86-17KQ/23897 Varying and bright
22h37m55.9s 86-17KU/23901 Varying and bright
22h40m23.3s 86-17KP/23896 varying and bright
22h40m48.3s to be identified
22h41m49.7s 86-17KL/23892
22h41m56.1s to be identified
22h42m11.8s 86-17KX/23904 (probably)
22h42m12.7s probably nothing
22h43m17.1s to be identified
22h43m31.8s to be identified
22h43m33.7s to be identified
22h43m52.6s 86-17A/16609, Mir, mag -2
22h44m10.1s Surprisingly, I could not identify this fragment, it was
rather bright.
