What these numbers mean: http://www.satobs.org/position/IODformat.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The astrometric data connected to last evening's spectacular IGS 1B appearance (-8 flare! http://www.satobs.org/seesat/Sep-2011/0018.html). On the flare image, I only measured the start of the trail (1st point), as the trail end is so overexposed due to the flare that it could not be reliably measured. Point 2 and 3 are from a second image where it was past flaring already. Later this night I tried in vain to look (both visually (naked eye) and photographically) for 01-044A between 00:28 and 00:40 UTC (Sep 3). Nothing seen (except for two strays), but conditions were far from excellent (haze, and only the part of the trajectory just after shadow exit could be covered due to housing in the way of view of the later parts of the trajectory). - Marco ----- Dr Marco Langbroek - SatTrackCam Leiden, the Netherlands. e-mail: sattrackcam@wanadoo.nl Cospar 4353 (Leiden): 52.15412 N, 4.49081 E (WGS84), +0 m ASL Cospar 4354 (De Wilck): 52.11685 N, 4.56016 E (WGS84), -2 m ASL SatTrackCam: http://home.wanadoo.nl/marco.langbroek/satcam.html Station (b)log: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com ----- _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-l
