Twenty minutes ago I observed Keyhole USA 116 (95-066A, #23728) slowly flaring to mag -2 at about 01:06:25 UTC. Very nice! Image of onset of flare: http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b176/marcoaliaslama/satellites/116_1806.jpg It made a very short mag. -3 flash as well at about 01:05:45 UTC (+- 10s). Positions from the image (as well as positions on Lacrosse 4 obtained earler this night) will follow tomorrow. - Marco :-) ----- Dr Marco Langbroek - SatTrackCam Leiden, Cospar 4353 Leiden, the Netherlands. 52.15412 N, 4.49081 E (WGS84), +0 m ASL SatTrackCam: http://home.wanadoo.nl/marco.langbroek/satcam.html Station (b)log: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com Atom RSS: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com/atom.xml e-mail: sattrackcam@wanadoo.nl ----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
