This is an old thread I found while looking for information about Iridium 28, I wanted to re bring this question up. I expected a flare from Iridium 28 on August 24th but it was a no show. Normally, I may have thought that perhaps I was in the wrong place at the wrong time, but I did observe Iridium 58 flare 1 minute earlier at the expected location. This same pair is expected to bring me another double flare on the 2nd of August. I plan on going to the centerline of the flare (if weather holds) to take some photos. I think that this has been reported other times as a no show, but I can't seem to find any other reports on it. Anybody else experienced a non flare from Iridium 28?
