    Hi all,
    
    Just observed the close formation duo Terrasar X and Tandem X flaring in the 
    zenith, to about mag +1 at about 17:01:15 UTC, give or take a second or 10.
    
    I captured the decsending part of the flare on photograph (strating just a few 
    seconds after the flare peak), two very nice parallel trails close together, the 
    leading one slightly brighter. Will post picture URL later.
