    Managed to finally observe Directv 11 ( 32729 ).
    
    It's running later, from what's predicted using the lastest tle. Nothing wrong as, they are still
    moving it, to it's proper orbital slot.
    
    It's neat to place it, in the centre of the feild of view, and watch it drift from the centre, due
    to it's orbit.
    
    Time is 3:03 UTC ( May 6 )
    
    Sat around
    
    12 h 29 m R.A
    -7 Deg 14 min Dec
    
    It's around the 10th magnitude, are faint.
