On 15 March 2021 at 11:36 UT (5:36 AM MDT local) I observed the objects from yesterday's launch at 10:01 UT. They were in the southeast, 27 degree elevation pass that just exited Earth shadow and heading north. Constellation Aquila Brightness was similar to the previous launch so ballpark 3-5 to 5. As before, they were not a uniform brightness. I did need the 7x50 binoculars. I looked visually after acquiring them and believe that I saw the procession but it was not obvious. I mentally timed the time to pass a star at 11 seconds. I did not see a solitary preceding objects like with the previous launch. Nothing unusual seen and again not a great pass as others have seen. Thanks again to Dr T.S. Kelso for providing the element sets and Chris Peat for having them for predictions on heavens-above.com. _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-lReceived on Mon Mar 15 2021 - 12:06:47 UTC
