Observed at 1101 UT on 9 May 2025 from Falcon, Colorado USA.

It passed just below (west of) Alcor and Mizar in Ursa Major
about 30 seconds early from the Heavens Above prediction.

Magnitude about 4 using 7x50 binoculars.

I did not follow it and continued looking at the target spot
in case it was not the correct object.  Path and speed seemed
appropriate.

The elset used was before the current one on Heavens Above
which now has an epoch of 25129.52575525.  The mean motion
of the elset used was 16.33.
