    A quick look for possible decayers on June 22, around 22:35:50 UTC - with a 
    screening windows of +/- 01 hour for Darmstadt (Germany) shows a negative result.
    We have three small pieces of PEGASUS debris - 94029GW, 94029JA, and 94029ACQ - 
    with  a reentry possibility on June 23, 00 UTC  +/- 12 hours but they were -
    based on relatively fresh ELSETs - not in time and place.
    
    The "faint" brightness ( -1 ) and the short visibility time ( 10 - 15 seconds)
    is untypical for a "normal" decayer. It could be a tiny piece of uncatalogized
    debris but - more possible - a fireball.
