Hello all;

Yesterday night José Luis Ruiz passed me a photograph that could be OTV-4,
last seen 43 days ago. He tried to capture it several times those two last
weeks.

Nothing is there at predicted time, 2015/09/24 at 19:26:30 UTC.

The coordinates are 36.8392, -2.4499, 31 meters a.s.l.

40561 15 025A   9999 G 20150924192630000 39 15 1842431+371355 38 S
40561 15 025A   9999 G 20150924192646000 39 15 2014256+404018 38 S

Time exposure is 16 seconds, and time accuracy is +- 30 seconds.
Cross-track errors may be pretty high cause I've did not make any
astrometry.

Fitting a circular orbit with both obs I get a very similar orbit than
OTV-4, so most probably José found the object.




Jon.
