I had another 1x pass of Iridium 85 tum #25529 98066C. As i was getting ready i noticed it rising in the South not expecting any flashes when there was a mag 1 flash at 02:25:00 6 Oct UTC +/- 5 sec. I wasn't ready for it so that's why the large time +/- variance. It continued to be visible at 1x, there was a brief glint just before it reached an Az of 90 deg but no time was recorded. Then as it passed to the West of Cassiopeia, about 2 - 3 deg (West) from the middle star in the W of Cassiopeia (sorry i don't know the name of that one), it flashed to a -2 at 02:26:25 +/- 3 sec. Here is the pass prediction for it: (edited) Start From Peak Az El End To Mag 02:22:58 176ø 02:26:06 94ø 69ø 02:29:16 10ø 1.9 25529 Iridium 85 tum Iridium 85 tum 4.0 1.8 0.0 6.0 d 9.3 1 25529U 98066C 00279.51238121 .00127199 00000-0 19162-2 0 6608 2 25529 86.0030 298.5365 0007612 129.6286 230.5874 15.54333050106544 Jari 54.25N 110.11W 556m ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www2.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
