Spectacular pass by the docked complex last night with visual magnitude 
approaching -5 ( 1816 GMT )

I have to admit I totally underestimated the brightness and as a result 
images were somewhat burned out
However the intense flare from the fixed starboard array was caught as it 
gave off a warm glow.

Sadly , Atlantis is hidden within the complicated mix of light and shade.
