This evening almost all objects from the Starlink launch between the
leading and trailing satellites were flaring, some very bright around mag
0.  All flares occured between Alpha en Delta Bootes.  Some were passing in
groups others alone.  All satellites passed between
21:37UTC-22:03UTC.(Leader-Trailer)

The Iridium flares are almost gone, but what a show with these ones.  It
seems to me, that flares from these satellites will also be predictable but
not as bright as the Iridium ones.
