I observed a flasher that I thought to be a geosync flasher at first, except it was not in the Clarke belt. It began flashing at 03:13:49 UTC, 31 May at RA 14deg 15min 01.6 sec, Dec +17deg 15min 40 sec - about 1.5 deg below Arcturus (az 196.25, el 67.4). Flashes were about 8 seconds apart and were typically +4 to +5.5 with some secondary flashes. I timed the flashes until 03:24 UTC. Any ideas? I am will to accept "weather baloon", "hallucination", etc. Cheers, Don Gardner 39.1799 N, 76.8406 W, 100m ASL http://hometown.aol.com/mir16609/ ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www2.satellite.eu.org/sat/seesat/seesatindex.html
