    We have clear sky tonight, and I tried to catch the following six
    satellites based on the data from Heavens Above:
    
    Resurs 01 Rocket   3.1  Max alt @20:05:28         missed
    Lacrosse 3 Rocket  2.4  Max alt @20:35:32
    GPS 2-26 Rocket1   3.1  Max alt @20:40:11
    Cosmos 1933 Rocket 4.4  Max Alt @20:54:54         missed
    Cosmos 1315 Rocket 4.4  Max alt @21:03:54         missed
    Iridium 3  -1 Flare Ctr 34.742N, 87.018W, 21:15:01
    
    Missed 3, got three, and got the feeling, what were the difference
    between a magnitude 2.4, 3.1 and -1. Will appreciate if any one will
    give a hint, what is the limit (approximate magnitude) that still can be
    seen without any binocular or telescope?
