I saw a pretty spectacular meteor last night (Sep2nd). About 05:31 UTC(Sep 3), saw a meteor roughly from north to south. If it had kept going, it would have entered the big dipper between Dubhe and Merak pretty much straight on. It was wider than normal, I couldn't tell if it was multiple parts breaking up, or just a large fireball from one piece. If there was light from the moon, I would have expected to see a residual smoke trail. Anybody know if any satellites decayed about that time? location: 44.260556°N 121.801222°W 1600M Is there an online reference for decays? -- Roger _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-l
