In spite of some clouds, a few minutes ago I was able to observe Lacrosse 2 (21447, 91-017A) pass through Taurus, a couple of degrees east of Aldebaran. It crossed the azimuth of that star, approximately 086:20 to 086:30, at about 9:38:39, while my Quicksat prediction had it arriving there about 33 seconds earlier than that. It also went within .25 degree or less of (probably below but I already can't remember that detail) a +4 to +5 star at about 9:39:29.5, but with the clouds there was no way to ID the star. Observing location was roughly 200 meters SSE of 30.3086N, 97.7279W, 150 m.
