Hello everyone! Iridium 44 (97077B 25078) is a very interesting flashing satellite. On June 16th, its flashes were so bright that I could see it through a thin layer of clouds and all the flashes were similar so that I could record the period with unaided eye! I saw it several times since but the fireworks did not happen anymore but it could perhaps happen another day! I saw Abrixas twice yesterday but it was steady. K. Dennerl wrote to me last week that an attempt of stabilizing the satellite would happen in a few days. I hope, it has been successfull! Regards -- Michel JACQUESSON 4°05' E 49°36' N
