Hi All,

    I have read that Cassini Saturn probe will make a speed gathering flyby
of earth in August (having all ready done the same with Venus) .The pass
will be at a distance of  1000km.

    - Will the probe be visable ? ( I assume its speed will be pretty fast
?)

    - If so ,will it be possible to generate an Elset for it ?
