Hi everyone,
An hour ago, I was tracking #25234 'Teledesic 1' with my 7x50 binosc.
Suddenly, a pair of satellites came into view from south. They were two
7 mag. points separated by 2 degrees, moving thru Bootes to Corona
Borealis at 0.8 deg/s.
I could track them only to CrB. They passed thru that constellation at
22:44:00 UT (Jun 14).
That was an incredible view! What could that be?
                                               Wow! How can I sleep now?
                                                                      GK
