    I stick to my previous explanation that was verified within 1 second of actual
    observation by the elsets published by OIG that I included in my post.
    The explanation in relation to orbital mechanics given by Don Gardner is
    right on the mark.
    
    Regarding Don's question :
    >Q1 - Did anyone observe a water dump yet?
    
    I did not see one on this mission because of un favourable conditions but
    I noticed while watching NASA TV that many of thes dumps took place
    in daylight.
    
    Cheers,
