Observed Envisat through binoculars a few minutes ago, easy to spot and good
yellow/orange colour. About 40 seconds into the visible pass (approx
21:52:20 UTC) another satellite crossed the field of view travelling in the
opposite direction and approx same track.

I think this may have been Activnyi (20261) - can anybody confirm please??

Clear skies,
