On June 3 UTC (Saturday evening USA time) I observed Superbird A from about 3:54 to 3:58, so I suggest that anyone wanting to see it tonight (Tuesday evening USA time) begin looking for it roughly at 3:45-55 (maybe as early as 3:40-50 if your're using a well-aimed telescope). "graveyard orbit for sun-synchs" -- what was I thinking?! I need to add to my sig. a standard "This message was probably written between 3:00 and 5:00 a.m. and is therefore highly suspect!" But anyway, I was curious about the fate of Landsats 4 and 5. I've seen Landsat 4 and Landsat 7 in the last week or so. (Still haven't managed to see Landsat 4 flares as reported by Don Gardner a long time ago.)
