Viasat 3 geo sat flaring.

Flaring confirmed.
The other night, I noticed Viasat 3 looked to be flaring.
Last night, I used the cmos camera with a narrow feild of view to observe
it, and confirm the flaring.
It flared for a very long time.
So the reflector must have deployed somewhat.
Be interest to watch, how bright the flare get's, as the angles change
between me, the sun and reflector over the year.
The geo sat was between mag 8 and 9 during the time, I would estimate.
Catalog number 56370
