    2nd batch of yesterday evening. A very fine clear night. The Progress pass was 
    through the zenith and very fine, the spacecraft being bright and steady. A 
    short time later, observed the ISS pass as well, very bright (-3) and orange.
    
    The Globalstar was captured as a stray in the 05-042A images.
    
    Tried some geosats as well but had no luck: USA 202 (Mentor 4) was probably in 
    eclipse, while Milstar 5 and Mentor 2 were not visible either (the latter might 
    have been just behind trees, as it recently moved to a new slot). Pippi the cat 
    kept me company during observations, diligently watching what I was doing... :-)
