    Hi All,
              Cut from Barry Cain's post today:
    
    >Resurs 1-4R (25400) spotted just after it left shadow between Altair and
    >Vega.
    
    Is there any significance in the use of uppercase "R" as opposed to
    lowercase in the naming of rockets and rocket fragments?
    
    Best,
    
    Pat Curran
