Hello SeeSat friends,

I was scanning the Mir orbit plane with binoculars 10 minutes before Mir arrived and I did not see the object I observed last night. I was hoping to time the object again and determine if changes were occuring. The sky was still bright at 21:03 EDT, suspicion I probably missed viewing the object altogether.

That was my last opportunity until about 9 days from now.
