    I must respectfully disagree about the ORS-1 candidate I saw last month being the r/b. I had a chance to see both the r/b and the payload found yesterday by Derek, and 37728 is definitely what I saw as reported in:
    
    http://www.satobs.org/seesat/Jul-2011/0011.html
    
    
    The r/b is variable, which I would have noticed easily, and has the dull appearance of most r/b. The payload was steady, 6th mag (as seen before) and had the silvery appearance of many other payloads I've seen. Perhaps the positions I gave last month were far enough off to explain the discrepancy?
    
    Tonight, I hope to go back out, until then:
