Hi all, I got the report of a flare from a Starlink on the 23rd June 2020. Trails of two satellites are recorded in an all-sky image taken by Jaime Izquierdo from M30 Observatory, in Madrid. Camera is used for a light pollution research project ( https://guaix.ucm.es/azoteaproject ) so exposures are long (25 seconds, one image every 2 minutes). And in this case the timing was a bit off (+3 minutes, checked afterwards). Actual time of observation was 03:36 UT, and trails observed fit very well with Starlink-65 (44276) and Starlink-21 (44245), launched on May 24, 2019 and happened to be around the 6000th revolution around the globe. I have posted it in case someone may find it interesting, especially for modelling these flares. The two stars between the two trails are Zeta and Epsilon Cygni. https://imgur.com/RRxZTNp Cheers, Paco Ocaña _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-lReceived on Thu Jun 25 2020 - 13:53:37 UTC
