MIR Last night I observed MIR on three consecutive orbits. As the first pass was almost 1 hour after dark and the third 1 hour before dawn, it was a mini-marathon. 21:54 S, mag 0 23:29 S, mag -2 01:04 S, mag -2 UNID This night I observed 3 UNID's. Two could be identified using Skymap and Alldat.tle file: 89- 86 B and 81- 8 A; see the 970531.obs-report. At 22:30 I observed a rapid flashing satellite moving from about RA=16h10 d=+45 to RA=17h20 d=+62. With Skymap and Mike's 970531 Alldat.tle the only candidate was 92- 93 EM. The track plotted by Skymap perfectly matches the observed one. This obs has to be conmfirmed. In PPAS format: 92- 93EM 97-05-31 22:30:05 LB 48.3 0.1 40 1.208 FF, mag 4->inv It was rather bright for a piece of debris. -- Greetings and clear skies Leo Barhorst Alkmaar The Netherlands 52.65 North 4.767 East 1 m ASL Member of Seesat-L ------------------------------------------------------------ Every day I wonder about the things I see in the (night)sky
