Hey guys, I'm fairly new to the satellite observing world (1 year) and was wondering if someone could help me ID a satellite I observed tonight (Saturday, June 10, 2017; 03:01 UTC) [local time was Friday, June 09, 2017; 23:01 EDT]. I was searching for a Cosmos rocket body and picked up a very faint sat in my binoculars. My coordinates: 36.1232° N, 77.4267° W Object was traveling from approx. North northwest (315°) to Northeast (45°) Altitude: 40° (10° above Polaris) Magnitude: +4.5 - +4.0 I use the Heavens-above app and didn't see anything in that general location on the scope. I searched the 5.0 magnitude sats on the Heavens-above website but still couldn't locate anything that it may have been. Thanks for any help, Reggie Duke http://www.djr04.com/satellite_observations.html _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-lReceived on Fri Jun 09 2017 - 23:06:59 UTC
