Hello Observers;

 Last night I saw a real flashing satellite going from about south west
to north north west. It was flasing off and on regular until it got
near 45 degrees then sorta skipped a flash but then resumed. It faded
into Ursa Major.
 Anyone know what it might have been? The flashes were less than a 1001
count, mabey 0.5 second. I did notice it was sorta light red color.

 I'm at N44 W63 It was first noticed at 0217 UT and went till 0219 UT,
it was a slow mover.

Thanks

Not sure which email address above is right one to use?
