Using the elsets below from OIG I was able to see Cosmos 2372 Rocket and the satellite just before they entered eclipse southbound in the evening around 19:22 and 19:25 UT respectively. They were at only 7 degrees elevation in azimuth 020 degrees. Even so the satellite was approx mag +3.5 steady, and the rocket flashing strongly to +2.5 with a period of 0.4 secs. They are well worth looking out for in the coming evenings as eclipse entry moves south!
