Hi Jim, I forgot to mention the bluish cloud -- yes it was quite evident after burnout, even in light-polluted skies. Wish I had stayed out longer to see the final burn -- after what I assumed was the 2nd stage cutoff (or possibly the 3rd?) at 3:07, I wasn't expecting anything else. I went back inside at ~3:10. There seemed to be a very short staging event about 1 minute into the flight -- kind of a "chuff". Did you see this? About 2 minutes into the flight there was a definite staging; the plume disappeared for at least 5-10 seconds. --Rob ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www2.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
