With additional Mir debris beiing catalogued today by USSPACECOM, I was able
to make a new list of identifications of my June 15 observation.(times are UT)
22h37m33.5s 86-17KQ/23897 varying and bright, confirmed, 0.55s late
22h37m55.9s 86-17KU/23901 varying and bright, confirmed, -1.1s early
22h40m23.3s 86-17KP/23896 varying and bright, confirmed, -0.7s early
22h40m48.3s 86-17LE/23918 0.66s early
22h41m49.7s 86-17KL/23892 0.23s early
22h41m56.1s 86-17KZ/23911 0.12s early
22h42m11.8s 86-17LC/23914 previously thought to be 86-17KX, 1.87 late
22h42m12.7s 86-17LA/23912 1.73s late, previously thought to be nothing(!)
22h43m17.1s to be identified: could be 86-17KY or fragment to be catalogued
22h43m31.8s to be identified: could be 86-17KY or fragment to be catalogued
22h43m33.7s to be identified: could be 86-17KY or fragment to be catalogued
22h43m52.6s 86-17A/16609, Mir, mag -2
22h44m10.1s Surprisingly, I could not identify this fragment, it was
rather bright.
The only candidate for this object is 86-17JV/23783(then it
was 34.32s early). Could also be a fragment yet to be
catalogued.
On June 16 I made also some timings of Mir debris but they haven't been
identified yet.
Maybe OIG will come out with some new fragments.
