It does not look that bright to me, and I doubt it would be much better for
the Finnish observers.
Do you see any contributors further N ?
Here at +59.25 I find an initial morning pass at 7 degrees in very bright
twilight and poor phase on day 13, better on day 17.
First evening passes 17, 33, 58 degrees on days 23, 24, 25 !
So it seems that another launch delay would benefit me, and faster.

I wish the southern observers more success !

... Based on limited checks, it appears that about 5 days after launch,
morning visibility will open for far northern
observers, and evening visibility will open for mid-southern latitude
observers. Prospective observers should check for
local visibility.
