    Hi all,
    
    The past two weeks I twice captured Lacrosse 5 (05-016A) in the act of its 
    infamous "disappearance trick" again.
    
    Combined with a capture from 26 Sep 2009, I constructed a comparative diagram of 
    the brightness profiles resulting from the images, a profile that can be seen here:

    Maybe one of the modellers can make sense of it.
