Notes:
(1) Still to come: DMSP B5C-04 #07816 and Mstar 3 Cen Rkt #25725 1st pass.
(2) DMSP B5D2-8 # 23533 was not seen during two tries, trying -3 to +3 min
so I will have to do an orbit plane scan for it- looks like lost for
the moment.
(3) Alexis #22638 seen for a few seconds but too faint to get a good
position - looks like on time, magnitude about +8.9 variable
(4) Alexis rocket #22639 seen for a few seconds, got one position before
it faded out.
(5) Please let me know of any errors- my typing is not the best and I
have a cat that insists in sitting on my lap and nudging my hand
every now and then with his head, so I either mistype or loose
my place on the scraps of paper on which I wrote the data. All
positions are stored as FITS images so any data can be checked
afterwards.
Cheers
Greg
