Hi all,

 Another Unknown. While setting up for obs of a NOSS spotted this one.
Very bright mag 2.5 to 3
with a reddish tint, (similar to Lacrosse 3). N to S trajectory, almost
identical trajectory to Cosmos 1677 but about 5 min. early. It passed
below Bellatrix between Mirzam & Sirius.  I checked the Classfd.tle and
Alldat.tle to mag 6.0 satellites and only found Cosmos 1677(10 day old
elset). Is there another possibility?  Times and RA & Dec available if
anyone is interested.

Have fun
Jim
