Hello SeeSaters!

A colleague reported me about an observation which took place at Les
Escaldes (Andorra - N42.500  E1.533) on April 22 at approximately 21:00
CEST (19:00 GMT). The observed object was travelling towards the North
and was recorded on video so it had to be very bright, I think. Alan
mentioned a possible reentry of Tubsat N (#25389 = 98- 42 A) near the
Bay of Biscay for that day in his "Decay Watch" of April 22. I haven't
more information about that observation at this time, but I wonder if
that reentry could be visible on that location.  

I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you very much in advance for
your comments.

Regards,
Oscar.-
