    Only a few captures these days due to the bad weather.
    
    A sequence of five flashes from Yaogan 1 allowed the direction of its 
    rotation axis to be computed: the axis is oriented toward the celestial
    coordinates DEC 14 deg, RA 2h30'. The rotation period is of about 16.7 s.
    
    The full report with photos of the captured flashes and a 3D representation
    of the rotating satellite is available here:
