USA 144 Titan 4 r ? passed about 1 degree above Polaris at 06:12:10 25 May
UTC +/- 2 sec. It was moving fast and quite bright, predicted mag of 2 but
it seemed brighter. It arrived a few minutes after Lacrosse 2 #21147 and
Lacrosse 3 #25017 had passed over my location and crossed in front of a
flashing Iridium 11. My thanks to those who posted it's elsets.
