    Last night ( 5 sept 2012) I observed 2011-45 C (obj 37800) at dusk for about 20 seconds between big clouds. The satellite passed just on Gamma Cygni at 19h26m12.5s UT, what is 16-17 seconds earlier than predicted by Calsky
    
    The satellite had culminated at an height above Earth of 606 km, according to Calsky.
    
    Calsky accompanying comments for the pass were :
    
    "Time uncertainty of at least 22 seconds. Calculated based on observations on 5. Sep 2012 7:58 CEST." 
    
    "Orbit: 130.7 x 1222 km, 98.3min Inclination: 49.3°
    Age Elements: 0.5 days (Orbit generated by SatEvo using current data)"
