NOTES:
---------
(1) Nice bright unknown - probably in elliptical orbit. Slightly
variable with flashes, magnitude about +7.5 to about +8.5
(2) Concludes observations for 17 November 2012
(3) Next observing session tomorrow night -20th Nov -if clear.
Purpose will be plane scan for USA 186 #28888, secure further
observations of unknown found near PAN - moving westward -.
Not too hopeful about finding unknown reported today as the
observed arc is too small to get any chance of a reasonable
orbit but who knows?
(4) Since I dont have the time to run a web page I am now posting
images etc on FACEBOOK. My page is fully open to anyone.
Cheers
Greg
