I had a feeling Scott was going to survey the entire geosat arc from Hawaii to Spain, so I looked at a few "new to me" LEOs to check if any were variable. They ain't, but it was a great night, mainly because it was one of two clear nights this month.
Tried to find a flaring geosat for the star party guests, but they are past their prime. Two r/b (19650 & 23705) made a nice pair trailing each other through the square of Pegasus.
