Dear Friends, As seems from the report of Rahul Zota, as per my conclusion it was a aeroplane or a hot air balloon which is now a days very frequently seen in my state of Gujarat where Rahul is also reside.Unfortunately he did not take picture of the object otherwise it would help to have some more idea.Also I did not receive any strange radio interference on my super sid ,radio jove & other radio receiver on that day.So if there was no any irridiumflare then it was a aeroplane or a balloon. regards, DDPurohit On Fri, Feb 11, 2011 at 7:27 AM, Ed Cannon <edcannonsat@yahoo.com> wrote: > Ulhas Deshpande wrote: > > > My Friend Rahul Zota, an amateur observer and > > comet hunter, observed a strange object, on the > > morning of 10 Feb. > > > > His report is as follows > > > > Today at 5:38am .... > > > > KAAC, Bhuj-Gujarat, India > > Are these more or less close to ? > > 1.
