Tomorrow, USA 129 will be 2h 45m ahead of USA 161 (on the daylight side), which is the usual indication of orbit raise. But neither has a perigee near the equator (340 and 220) which is a contributing factor. It was raining when we left 5919, but there were some patches of clear sky before the 20:19 pass (NNW) of USA 129. I thought I saw a (flaring) satellite at 20:19:55.3 UTC near 14h27m +44.1, but because of clouds moving quickly in the opposite direction, I could have mistaken lambda Bootis for a satellite.
