    The second launch (another Terrier-Orion) occurred at 5:41:00
    UTC, 30 June.  When I arrive at my viewing location at
    T+01:30 I could see the white streak produced by the TMA at
    1x.  This streak was somewhat dimmer than the one produced by
    the first launch and like the 1st launch was in the SE about
    25 deg above the horizon (about 5-10 deg higher than Mars). 
    By T+03:05 it was no longer visible at 1x.
