    96-072A was zipping through the zenith while passing it's perigee. Very fast and 
    bright: spectacular!
    
    Two minutes earlier, another bright object had passed in a similar trajectory 
    and I shot it just in case... It turned out to be 09-061B, the Chinese CZ-2C r/b 
    which launched SJ-11-01.
    
    05-042A was fainter (+3 to +4) but well-visible on the images.
