    Yes, I video-recorded several hundred of flashes with my all-sky camera and 
    UFOCapture. These flashes are very amusing. Most of them interest IRIDIUMs but 
    also NOSS 2-3,  Globalstar 23, Topex, KH 9-19 Elint , NOAA 11 and NOAA 14. But 
    there are also many other.
    
    Bye,
    Stefano
