Heavens above listed a flare from Iridum 26 ( 24903 ) to be -8 tonight. Well me and my neirbour watched, and ended up disappointed with it. It got no brighter then, the magnitude of -1 :( I find it almost seems all iridium flares I have observed, end up fainter then predicted. How can I show a good flare to people, when I can no longer trust the irdium satellite's to put on a show like they did in the past, and seemed to be more reliable at getting closer to the predicted magnitude. At least to me it seems that way. Kevin Get a sneak peak at messages with a handy reading pane with All new Yahoo!
