Nice... you had very good luck. I have tried to see the Iridium 16 flasing and i haven't seen it yet. Javi -------Mensaje original------- De: Ed Cannon Fecha: 06/14/05 09:41:21 Para: seesat-l@satobs.org Asunto: Iridium 16 (97-030F, 24841) tumbling/flashing Sunday evening (June 12/13) we were watching Iridium 914 (97-030A, 24836) flashes. Suddenly to the left and higher up was a very bright flash, and after we both said, "What was that?!" there was another flash, maybe about mag. -5. I got it in my 8x42 and followed it on to the south. It was Iridium 16 (97-030F, 24841), and I was able to watch it flashing again on its pass tonight. Here are timings from the June 14 UTC pass: 13.62, 13.90, 1.41, 25.44, 1.15, 12.03, 9.78, 2.72, 7.36, 1.96, 1.51, 3.46, 8.41, 1.43, 3.61 This was from the Ney Museum -- 30.307N, 97.727W, 150m. The Monday evening Meteor 1-7 (71-003A, 04849) pass was obscured by clouds, but Mike and I saw it Sunday evening (June 13 UTC). I wish I knew when it might re-enter (if it hasn't already)....
