Just before eclipse entry it was very bright, mag. +1 and easily visible. The trail image is here: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com/2007/04/my-first-usa-193-06-057a-observation.html ...and can be seen crossing Gemini at about 40 degrees altitude in the west-southwest. It was rather fast, a very fine sight to see it zip by so brightly. This was the first time I observed it actually, usually it stays a bit too faint for me. - Marco :-) ----- Dr Marco Langbroek - SatTrackCam Leiden, Cospar 4353 Leiden, the Netherlands. 52.15412 N, 4.49081 E (WGS84), +0 m ASL SatTrackCam: http://home.wanadoo.nl/marco.langbroek/satcam.html Station (b)log: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com Atom RSS: http://sattrackcam.blogspot.com/atom.xml e-mail: sattrackcam@wanadoo.nl ----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
