2nd pass of #28888. Just 2.6 s before USA 186, a "red herring" crossed the field. In opposite direction, and I am slightly better att recognizing the inverted view, rotated by eyepiece/observer angle. It turned out to be #17291 87001B, an SL-14 rocket. USA 129 very faint in the W, despite 34d altitude. 28888 05 042A 5919 E 20071018190233220 17 25 0914173+612450 28 S 28888 05 042A 5919 E 20071018190352110 17 25 1034446+490742 77 S 24680 96 072A 5919 E 20071018202111820 17 25 1826777+305700 97 S+080 10 (as always, IOD format: http://www.satobs.org/position/IODformat.html) -- Björn Gimle -- -- COSPAR 5917, STAR, +18.0545 (E), +59.3419 (N), 33 m -- -- COSPAR 5918 WGS84, +18.10127 (E), +59.29813 (N), 44 m -- -- COSPAR 5919, MALMA, +18.6206 (E), +59.2615 (N), 33 m -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
