I was trying to spot some satellites from my balcony in the city on Sunday
night . I located
 7 or 8 using binos and an 8" F/6 telescope

Some I remember were:

Iridium 44 Tum,   25078U passed 1.3 degrees below Jupiter on UT 5/12 @
6:09:30.
  it was tumbling, and varied in brightness.

Cosmos 1697 r., 16182U passed 3.2 arc-min below Jupiter on UT 5/12 @ 6:45.

Noss 3 (G),  11745U passed about 1.5 deg above the Moon on 5/12 @ 8:03:20.
    It was very red and completely dimmed and disappeared 5 or 6 seconds
later.
    It was running about 1 minute 14 seconds late.
