Evening all, Observations made 17 Jan from my site near Cape Town: #05679 71110A 19h40m15.6s RA sorry --rubbish...wrong data! #05679 71110A 19h21m25.9s UT RA 04h54.2m Dec -63d 50' mag 2.5 steady (J2000) #24680 96072A 20h06m29.1s UT RA 12h07.6m Dec -50d34' mag 7 steady (J2000) 96072B(#24681) was seen but as it was 66 sec early on element set epoch 97 15.86402340 I though it might have been the wrong object so left it and waited and thus didnt get a position ! It was about magnitude 7 at the time and about a degree lower in the telescope field than predicted. Also saw Mir/STS81 tonight going through the Southern Cross-far outshone any stars in that part of the sky. Followed into shadow but not visible in shadow with my 5 inch refractor. I return to work on monday so dont know how much longer I can burn the late night hours-like Tony Beresford Im supposed to be awake at work ! Cheers Greg
