Obs SatTrackCam Leiden (Cospar 4353), 5 Apr 2006: 27699 03 009B 4353 F 20060405210936100 17 75 1800118+682040 56 E+015 10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Method: Canon Digital Ixus 400 + ASTRORECORD astrometric software. Camera at manual mode, "10 second" (= 10.7 second) exposure, wide field f2.8/7.41 mm. What these numbers mean: http://www.satellite.eu.org/position/IODformat.html IGS 1B was exactly one second early with respect to elset 06093.83849704. Quickly became very bright (+1.5 to +1) as seen visually when emerging from eclipse just above the roof of the opposite building: much brighter than predicted. As the photographed trail ends behind the roof I can only report one point (trail start). Trail on image very crisp, no problem measuring it. - Marco :-) ----- Dr Marco Langbroek - SatTrackCam Leiden, Cospar 4353 Leiden, the Netherlands. 52.15412 N, 4.49081 E (WS84), +0 m ASL SatTrackCam: http://home.wanadoo.nl/marco.langbroek/satcam.html Station (b)log: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com Atom RSS: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com/atom.xml e-mail: sattrackcam@wanadoo.nl ----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
