    Hello everybody
    I have just subscribed the list. Interested in astronomy and astronautics
    for long, I had given up watching satellites for long (my first one was
    Pageos...). I started again a few years ago not only because of MIR but also
    when, a night, I followed a fast tumbling rocket (don't remember which one)
    in my field of view.
    I have 8x21 and 10x50 binoculars and an ETX90 I hope to use with a CCD
    camera when I shall find time to fit the second on the first. My last
    interesting observation was Soyuz TM-33 just after its launch. It followed
    its (tumbling) third stage by a few minutes and was followed by ISS 30
    minutes later.
    My usual sky is not very dark but pretty clear.
    My other hobby is sundials.
