At approx 20:56 to 20:57 local time (19:56 to 19:57 UT) I noticed a bright flash which I took to be an aircraft light, further observation showed what appeared to be a very faint satellite (mag 4 to 5) this was closely followed by an almost invisible companion which appeared to be tumbling erratically and giving bright occasional flashes every 5 or 6 seconds. The objects were travelling from south to north and were maybe 80 deg above horizon passing close through cygnus and towards cassiopaiae. I checked for coresponding sats and can find nothing to match this sighting, any comments?http://www.amos39.f9.co.uk station 2453 53 deg 23 min 49secs N 2 deg 4 min 57 secs W ----------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from SeeSat-L, send a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@satobs.org List archived at http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
