    Hi folks:
     Observed passage of two objects - parallel tracks - DMSP B5c-03 and
    DMSP B5c04 both mag +7.6.  The former leads the other by 7 minutes..
      Is this configuration on purpose ? (Since this is meteorogical
    satellites - what purpose does this serve with such another sats so
    close by? - I was thinking on 'footprint' on both will be similar)
     Thanks
