The object I saw 84 sec before the Michael Waterman 14.98 orbit yesterday (almost) matched my adjusted elset today. At 20:02:59.5 UT it was at RA 13.454, dec +55.07 flashing with a 5-6 sec.period but several maxima, variation 1.5-2 magnitudes (which I didn't see on the zenithal pass yesterday) -- bjorn.gimle@tietotech.se (office) -- -- b_gimle@algonet.se (home) http://www.algonet.se/~b_gimle -- -- COSPAR 5919, MALMA, 59.2615 N, 18.6206 E, 33 m -- -- COSPAR 5918, HAMMARBY, 59.2985 N, 18.1045 E, 44 m -- -- SeeSat-L / Visual Satellite Observer Home Page found at -- -- http://www2.satellite.eu.org/satintro.html -- > The situation with these unknowns remains confusing.
