Hi Tristan, The Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (= HXMT; 2017-034A, #42758) is the only candidate that I found: http://www.heavens-above.com/passdetails.aspx?lat=51.2093&lng=3.2247&loc=Bruges&alt=13&tz=CET&cul=en&satid=42758&mjd=58228.8199853113&type=V Does it match your observation? I just observed from 19:34 to 19:35 UTC the end of an HXMT pass with the naked eye: the brightness was at least +1 mag. (observing site: Saarbrücken, Germany) Clear skies, Patrick -------------------------------------------- Tristan Cools via Seesat-l <seesat-l_at_satobs.org> schrieb am Sa, 21.4.2018: Betreff: challenge An: "Seesat-L" <seesat-l_at_satobs.org> Datum: Samstag, 21. April, 2018 18:50 Uhr Hi all, This may be a challenge but maybe somebody can help. Yesterday, april 20 2018 I saw a bright satellite travelling from West to East maybe 30 deg culmination hight. Location was Bruges, Belgium and time of observation around 19:42 UTC. I include a picture here. Only a small trail is visible with (almost) no reference stars as the photograph was taken in twighlight and largely over exposed. I was visible the whole track untill it disappeared behind houses. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1U2mzaWew9Ve3yrOgD1cctaLCVAmzptJ3 I have no clue what it is, maybe a bright object in 52deg orbit but certainly not ISS. I also couldn't find it in the TLE files from spacetrak. Maybe someone can help. gr, Tristan Cools BWGS _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-lReceived on Sat Apr 21 2018 - 14:51:31 UTC
