    I saw about the same thing, it was briefly brighter than Sirius but usually
    a bit less. Amazing pass of all 3 objects, plus there was 27706 GPS 52 PAM
    Rk  03 10C passing nearly overhead here between ATV and the ISS - STS pair.
    It zipped from Orion to Denebola in about a minute, and was about as fast
    and low as any object I've seen so far.
    
    Full reports later - what a night!
