I was using the low light video camera, at the end of the 4 ince refractor, so I can see fainter satellites. I was observing the geo sat's, when I noticed a glonass satellite would pass by. So I aimed at it, and was rewarded with a bright flashes evey 30 seconds. Video of one of the Bright flashes. http://www.kfetter.com/satvideo/flashing-glonass/23205.wmv It was around 5 h 16 min R.A - 5 deg 04 min Dec I would say, the flashes were brighter then mag +4. No stars to compare to, due to the narrow feild of view I had. Kevin 44.6062 N 75.6910 W __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
