At about 4:28:32 UTC I saw some fuzzy streaks a degree or two behind the centaur extending not quite perpendicular to its path. They appeared and faded quickly. My best guess is that it was a high-flying flock of birds, but is there a possibility that it was some sort of thrusters firing? I'm glad the fuel dump was a lot more obvious. It looked like a bright ring that appeared around the rocket and slowly faded as it expanded. I counted seven rings total before it went behind Earth's shadow. It didn't appear to be visible to the naked eye. Thanks for posting the predictions for this fuel dump. I've seen a lot of satellites, but I've never seen anything like this before. _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-lReceived on Fri Mar 13 2015 - 00:55:39 UTC
