I just observed the satellites two hours after launch
at 11:37 UT, 4 March 2021.  The pass was descending to
the northeast around azimuth 26 degrees, elevation
12 degrees.

They spanned about 5-10 arc minutes and were brighter
than the passes I observed of the previous launch. They
probably would have been visible without binoculars but
I did not have time to verify that before they passed
behind low elevation clouds.

One object made a short flash.

Thanks to De Kelso for providing prelaunch elsets and
Chris Peat (heavens-above.com) for having them on his
website to generate pass information.
