but how will we get any points unless of course it appulses the sun (or daytime moon [perhaps venus]), but sun presents its own problems. using solar filters, would we be able to see it as a transit of solar disk? and as it "approached" the sun, the illuminated area would become less(?), become more faint, not seen ?? if the goal is to orbit an object big enough and bright enough to see in daytime, seems like someone could have inflated a really big balloon covered with shiny reflective stuff a long time ago. *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 07/25/01 at 08:03 Barhorst L.J.C. wrote: > >Look forward to see ISS in daytime. > >Greetings >Leo Barhorst > ******************************************* Paul Gabriel 26.24310N 098.21635W 34.8m the stars at night are big & bright...... gabriel305@earthlink.net titanp150 / win95C / calypso ----------------------------------------------------------------- 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
