In http://www.satobs.org/seesat/Sep-2012/0112.html Ted Molczan provides our forum with search TLE for the expected NOSS-launch. Without looking at the TLE itself I started predicting and was surprised that for my location the new NOSS will have its transit about 1 minute before the the NOSS 3-3 duo (we say duo, may be English is duet, like trio and triplet?) and at about the same part of the sky. This looks as if the new NOSS-payloads will replace the before-mentioned two NOSS-satellites. Without any background study I should expect a replacement for the oldest NOSS-duet/duo, which does not fly in formation since a couple of months. I'll try to catch the new objects. Weather predictions don't give me much hope.
