Hello All, Thanks to Gordon Garradd, I've added a photo and description to the vsohp telescope.html page that show the Cassini and Titan IV Centaur booster (in a diffuse cloud) leaving Earth orbit at distance of approximately 26000km over Australia. http://www.satellite.eu.org/telescope.html Gordon writes in part: <I didn't have any prior knowledge of the visibility of the <Cassini mission from Australia, but did get a few phone <calls about a mag 1 comet near Jupiter! After having <a look for myself, by which time it had faded to mag 4, I decided <it had to be Cassini, which I knew had been launched not long <beforehand. I took a couple of telephoto lens photos on a tripod, <then rushed up to my telescope to get this photo. The update presently resides on the www.satellite.eu.org directory and will update to the www2.satellite.eu.org directory in 1-2 hours. Launch took place on Oct 15 at 08:43 UT. The photo was taken on Oct 15 at 11:02 UT. Jeff Hunt <jeff@satellite.eu.org> http://www.satellite.eu.org/satintro.html
