    Hi all,
    
    Just observed a pass of the HTV-1 (09-048A, #35817) on its way to the ISS.
    
    It was fast, bright (+1), orange, and flared briefly to -1 at ~19:34:43 UTC (12 
    Sep).
    
    I captured the trail on a photograph which I will post later.
    
    It was a close call, as clouds were moving in.
    
    - Marco
