Yesterday (3-4 May) between 23:02 and 00:06 UT I did a photographic plane scan for USA 224. While USA 224 was not recovered, I catched a few other objects inclusing ESA's SWARM A & C duo (13-007 B & C). An image can be seen here: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.nl/2014/05/imaging-swarm-and-c.html SWARM C flared, in a somewhat odd way. After what seems a flat bright plateau, the brightness suddenly drops. There is not notable decsending brach, it goes "floop" from bright to faint. - Marco ----- Dr Marco Langbroek - SatTrackCam Leiden, the Netherlands. e-mail: sattrackcam_at_langbroek.org Cospar 4353 (Leiden): 52.15412 N, 4.49081 E (WGS84), +0 m ASL Cospar 4354 (De Wilck): 52.11685 N, 4.56016 E (WGS84), -2 m ASL Cospar 4355 (Cronesteyn): 52.13878 N, 4.49937 E (WGS84), -2 m ASL Station (b)log: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com Twitter: @Marco_Langbroek ----- _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-lReceived on Sun May 04 2014 - 11:07:48 UTC
