Fleetsatcom 3 (80-004A, 11669) was flashing to at least +4 just a degree or two east or northeast of Spica at about 4:34-38 July 6 UTC. Asymmetrical flashes at 10.6 and 52.9 seconds (shorter than some months ago). This would appear to match Brian's sighting on July 4. PPAS format: 80- 04 A 05-07-06 04:38:14 EC 254.1 0.2 4 63.5 +4.0-> 10.6, 52.9 While I was watching it, Cosmos 2414 Rk (05-002B, 28522), another nice flasher, happened to go by. I saw twelve unids last night; most have now been identified.
