    I observed ADEOS 2 from shadow exit near 352/29 down to 344/4.3, and
    about one degree further down, in total about 4.0 minutes. It appeared
    steady, just fading going away towards the Sun.
    I may have seen IGS1A, about 30 s early wrt latest(03276) elset, but
    since I am unable to find the stars I can't check for other candidates.
    
    Can anyone give me some good rules how to rotate the mirrored field of a
    Newton telescope to altaz or RA/dec orientation?
