I observed, in late twilight, the Crew Dragon on its 2nd revolution, around 21:18 UT, at a very low elevation pass (9 degrees!) in the southwest. My observing location was Cronesteyn park on the edge of Leiden, the Netherlands, where I have a free view to the horizon. I first saw the ISS pass, naked eye. Then, with 10 x 50 binoculars, I watched the Crew Dragon, at about magnitude +3 to +3.5 (too faint for the naked eye at this very low elevation), passing through the southern part of Corvus at 23:18 CEST (21:18 UT). A stack of 52 images (canon EOS 80D + 2.0/85 mm lens) showing the Crew Dragon disappear in Earth Shadow can be seen here: https://twitter.com/Marco_Langbroek/status/1266856248403791874?s=20 - Marco ----- Dr Marco Langbroek - SatTrackCam Leiden, the Netherlands. e-mail: sattrackcam_at_langbroek.org Station (b)log: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com Twitter: _at_Marco_Langbroek ----- _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-lReceived on Sat May 30 2020 - 17:23:57 UTC
