I saw six flares (to the right of Lyra) of Iridium 70, 72-75, and one before those, five days after launch (1998-05-21 23:59 UTC) In our bright summer night, I dared not try for all six, some minutes apart, but I captured all on video, and the five new on a picture. See: http://members01.chello.se/isaq/Bilder9805/Irid7x.jpg and: http://members01.chello.se/isaq/Bilder9805/Irid7xx.gif or: http://members01.chello.se/isaq/Sat.htm -- bjorn.gimle@tietotech.se (office) -- -- b_gimle@algonet.se (home) http://www.algonet.se/~b_gimle -- -- COSPAR 5919, MALMA, 59.2615 N, 18.6206 E, 33 m -- -- COSPAR 5918, HAMMARBY, 59.2985 N, 18.1045 E, 44 m -- > another list. So I did see all the new Iridiums in one night. Has anyone > else ever seen 2 iridiums flaring at the same time within a few degrees of > each other? It was quite a treat. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
