At the same time I was waiting for Iridium 44 (25078, 1997-077 B). =
As I did not yet observe Iridium 79 (25470,1998-051 D) before I looked =
at it briefly and saw it was not steady. I timed 3.78 and 14.14 seconds =
between successive flashes, of which the brightest was -2. Later I read =
Philipp's email and I now can believe he missed his flare. Yet another =
flashing Iridium. If I am well informed there are now 9 of them. Another =
three in about the same plane as Iridium 79. =20
For the record, Bram sent this message above, but forgot to put his name =
on it. And everithing here is sent under my name.
Greetings,
