Last night NOSS 2-2 trio (91-076C,D,E; 21799, 21808, 21809)
were easy one-power here even with some thin cloud present.  
They might have been +3.0 at the brightest.  This was a 
southbound pass.  Last night's pass was fairly bright also.

Gorizont 14 also easy even with moonlight and thin cloud.

Saw ISS, brighter than Mars, at around 1:26 UTC, when the 
Sun was at only -5.5 altitude/elevation.  This was while I 
was waiting for my predictions to print out for the later 
session at BCRC location (30.315N, 97.866W, 280m).

Nice one-power (about +3.5) pass of FUSE (99-035A, 25791) 
at about 2:38.  Range was more than 1000 km.

From previous night -- Cosmos 2378 Rk (26819):
01- 23 B 01-08-23 02:25:07   EC   48.0 0.5  19  2.53
