With the probable manouvre of USA 186 [28888/05042A] I performed a
planar search using the 12mm F/1.2 lens.

USA 186 was 6.5 minutes late on the recent elset. Luckily it flared to
magnitude -1, otherwise I would probably not have seen it. Though the
12mm F/1.2 has a bigger field of view it has less sensitivity.
