Flashes, times noted below, near -1.0 then dimming to 2.0. Started flashing as it approached zenith just below vega. Lost sight of it, again viewing naked eye, at 30 degrees elev. in the north. 00:06:16.85 50.67 00:07:24.54 31.50 37.56 56.83 59.90 00:08:03.20 04.18 09.84 18.03 00 -06 B 2000-10-16 00:34:37.34 JN 45.59 10 4.559 0.0->3.5 M distinct maxes, however they dimished and the object appeared steady as it neared culmination. I had started a second timing, (the one above being on ascencion from 35 degrees elev), counting maxes for one minute but at 35 secs they were indiscernable from the regular magnitude around 3.0.
