Hi Alain and Seesat l

Seen again this evening at 21:23UTC.  Nearly missed this fast moving
object  but picked it up near Aql.  This will probably be my last
observation before it will re enter.  It is now in a 202/239km orbit. Decay
around July 13.  Would like to see more accurate decay predictions.

greetings
