The toast is nearly ready, will be cooked within less than 24 hours. We have a daylight pass which is likely to be too early (and probably cloudy anyway) and an early morning non-illuminated pass which is not long after Calsky's predicted decay time, however it doesn't seem it will last long enough for us to have much chance of seeing it, cloud could once again be a factor even if decay did occur near here. So seems fairly unlikely we will catch any of the crumbs!
