Hello everyone,
This is my first post of obs. I'm still working on
the format and am open to suggestions.
Using 8" LX200 (32X, 1.4 deg fov), CSat software and
Molczan.tle. All obs were +/- 3 sec of prediction
and no flashes observed unless noted. All flash times
are estimates (no stopwatch).
All times are UTC:
