Tracc was at an altitude of 1004 km and range of 1719, while the Noss 3 G was at an altitude of 1573 km and range of 2558. Not exactly a collision. While tracking #25489 it passed 1/2 degree below a Messier object at 1.05.38 UTC, it was id as M94 / NGC 4736. #18010 also took me to a M object to id at 2.09.05 UTC, it was M106 / NGC 4258. The night before I saw an unknown that I could not id. On March 23 at 02.20.35 UTC I was looking for USA 125 Rk2 one degree above Saturn with telescope with a 1.4 degree fov and 30x. When I first saw #23947 there was another object almost in the same position moving very slowly in the same direction. With #23947 only going .02 degree/second, I watched the other object in the same field of view move even more slowly. The unknown was seen to move less than 2/10 degree while USA 125 Rk2 was in same fov. I continued following # 23947 and at 02.23.24 UTC had a faster moving unknown overtake and pass it. I was able to id this as Pageos 1 / #02253. Times on this were not with a stop watch, but from glances at an accurate wrist watch, so + or - a couple of seconds. What was the extremely slow moving object?
