This was one of the best Iridium flares I'd ever seen! Iridium 51 (25262) leading Iridium 7 (24793) by 10 seconds, producing near-simultaneous -5 magnitude flares from our location last night. Heavens-Above predicted the flare only from Iridium 7. Iridium 51 may be stable enough in orientation to produce predictable flares. Keep an eye out for passes of this pair! Photography or video highly encouraged! Rick Baldridge Campbell, CA USA -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
