PPAS and further dates later. Having somewhat slaked my thirst for DSO's I started sweeping for more classified objects this night. Used site number 8888 = 31.2773 S, 149.2790 E Equipment was typically 18" f/4.2 Dobsonian reflector at 46x or 87x manual sweeping by star hop. I did attempt to use Argo Navis on another 18" and even a 25" scope, with poor results. UT is from the Australian Speaking Clock and my usual Robic stopwatch. 26715 01 009A 8888 E 20110403132200060 57 25 1205944+091257 37 S 26715 01 009A 8888 E 20110403132628590 57 25 1210317+091326 37 S Obs - Pred: 0.084 deg X-track; 629.663 s late, relative -5.61 day old elset: 1 26715U 01009A 11099.17244643 0.00000000 00000-0 00000-0 0 05 2 26715 4.6500 51.1826 0010871 231.1649 128.7476 1.00261467 06 07963 75 055A 8888 E 20110403160510430 57 25 1113291-012167 27 I+110 20 07963 75 055A 8888 E 20110403160521180 57 25 1113516-012252 18 I Obs - Pred: 0.004 deg X-track; 10.897 s late, relative -5.37 day old elset: 1 07963U 75055A 11099.04074256 .00000000 00000-0 00000-0 0 08 2 07963 20.8451 338.4183 1302922 248.0639 97.6062 1.00191603 09 Notes: Still trying to figure out 17181 - will report reductions later or no match. 26715 very late and near DirecTV2 23192. First 3 points were a faint steady satellite and fairly match a very late Milstar, but then I had moved the scope to keep up with drift and seem to have happened on 23192, which was slowly variable at 11->12 A. Questionable. Sweeps with no results (A = allsat.tle choice of earliest prediction, C= classfd.tle): 26356 A->C spread 23467 near start of A->C 10016 while it should've passed 27516 4376 <A->C spread 9856 A->C spread 37232 near start of A->C Brad Young Ozsky 2011 Star Party -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
