hello, on Sept 15th I have taken a video of a pass of UARS over Northern France, between 04:42:14 and 04:44:02 UTC. It is obvious that the satellite is rotating on itself, could this be due to a collision with satellite debris a few years ago? (there were a discussion in this group about this possibility in 2008) Video and other data on this page: http://legault.perso.sfr.fr/uars_110915.html As usual, each frame of the video is a combination of 15 consecutive raw (12bit fits) images, without any other processing. regards Thierry Legault www.astrophoto.fr _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-l
