    With the night skies not getting dark these days i have not been doing much
    in the way of sat observing lately. However last night as i was about to
    retire for the night, i looked out the window and by chance happened upon a
    flaring object. I don't have an exact time but it was around 06:18:xx 29 May
    UTC. Mag of -2 and it remained visible for 10 sec or so. The object was just
    below (E) and to the left (N) of Altair. Az 90deg El 19-20 deg and was
    travelling South to North. I ran Alldat but nothing at that elevation at
    that time. Thanks in advance for help in identifying this object.
