    Dear group,
    
    We are far away from either one of the two equinoxes where geosat 
    observation is best pursued but I decded to spend a few hours the other 
    day to supplement my small collection of geosat images taken in 2010.
    
    Something which caught my attention involves what seems to be a tumbling 
    satellite in the vicinity of the Hotbird fleet at 13.0d East. Please see 
    http://www.perseus.gr/Astro-Sat-Geosats-Hotbird130East.htm and for the 
    tumbler which crossed my field of view. Any ideas as to which tumbling 
    satellite it may be?
    
    I will identify the individual one-minute exposures which contain this 
    tumbler moving within the field of view for the preparation of an 
    animated GIF.
    
    Further examples of geosat imaging at 
    http://www.perseus.gr/Astro-Sat-Geosats.htm .
    
    Thanks in advance for any leads on the possible tumbler.
    
    Anthony.
