    Nice clear sky. This was the only object I targetted this evening, using the EF 
    100/2.8 Macro. It was cruising close to Arcturus at that time.
    
    07-060A was 20s late (0.5 degree off) relative to elset 10123.91284286.
    
    The trail is very bright on the image series. Normaly I have to search for the 
    tiny trails of HEO objects on my images, but this one jumped right out even on 
    the on-camera tiny LCD screen.
    
    There is some indication of it getting slightly fainter over the 1m20s series of 
    5 images.
