I saw this satellite this morning in my 8" Dobsonian at magnification x38, varying between mag +9 and +9.5 just as the dawn was starting to become apparent. It was running nearly 6 minutes early on Mike McCants' orbit from 83 days ago: > KH 9-17 ELINT 0.3 0.9 0.0 8.9 d 9.90 > 1 13172U 82041C 99257.87494348 .00001100 00000-0 17924-3 0 09 > 2 13172 95.9860 135.3431 0003000 128.1899 231.8100 14.71087725 01 > > IntlId SiteYYMMDDHHMMSSss Sss TCHHMMmm DDMMm Mm E > 8204103267599120706273937 010 12185601 +42117 1 5 > 8204103267599120706281174 010 12194065 +45366 1 5 > > David M Brierley > Malvern, Worcestershire, UK > Station 2675 52.1358N 2.3264W 70m > dmbrierley@compuserve.com > -- The Information contained in this E-Mail and any subsequent correspondence is private and is intended solely for the intended recipient(s).
