    Dear list,
    
    Last night was a busy night for watching, went out looking for ETS-7...
    Using predictions from Heavens-Above my wife an I caught OCS, Cosmos
    2058, ISS, (missed ETS-7, blame Moon) then in between Cosmos 1143 Rocket
    and Cosmos 1340 Rocket came a bright, fast flasher from N to S (dim,
    dim, bright; dim, dim, bright) The pattern repeats about every 2 sec.
    
    The predictions suggest:
      USSPACECOM Catalog No.:26070
      International Designation Code:2000-006-B
    
    but the satellite we saw culminated at approx. 23:03:00 EDT, which would
    be 2-3 min. early, is the above mentioned object a known flasher? This
    would be a good one to show the neighbors...
