Yesterday, 11/22/2020, in the afternoon, I was able to see something before the first of the Astrometry photographs that I will leave, a satellite that turned on a little and then turned off; taking into account the haze, I estimate that its magnitude varied between +2.5 and +4.5, the transition from one extreme to the other was fast (3-4 seconds), but so much when I almost lost sight of it, and then saw it, it remained At least 10 seconds, when it got close to the zenith, the magnitude variation was between +1.5 and +3.5, only slightly less bright than the star Deneb, which was not too far away to the naked eye, when it reached its maximum brightness. But when it reaches the position where Cosmo-Skymeds usually shine brightly, it began to rapidly increase in brightness, to the point that for at least 30 seconds it was at magnitude -2 or more negative, and at one point, it can it went down to -3 or -4, as much as the ISS. Then it faded quickly, instead of gradually as I was used to. The thing is, it doesn't seem to work well Date: 20201122 Time: 18:23 UTC - ... First photograph: 18:23:14 UTC - 18:23:30 UTC Trail very close to 13 Cep maximum brightness (magnitude +2.5) Second photograph: 18:23:52 UTC - 18:24:08 UTC Trail close to 2 Peg maximum brightness (magnitude +1.5) Third photograph: 18:24:30 UTC - 18:24:46 UTC The maximum brightness appears to be below the stain in the photo. Mirrors (approximate): 57.5º, 265.9º Fourth photograph: 18:25:09 UTC - 18:25:25 UTC Trail between 17 Aqr and Nu Aqr (ν Aqr) maximum brightness (magnitude +2) https://nova.astrometry.net/status/4031421 https://nova.astrometry.net/status/4031425 https://nova.astrometry.net/status/4031432 https://nova.astrometry.net/status/4031440 3602, 36.8389ºN, 2.4498ºW, 31 m, Almería (Spain) Regards -- José Luis Ruiz Gómez _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-lReceived on Mon Nov 23 2020 - 05:27:38 UTC
