Sept. 30, 2001 Wasted the five minutes prior to predicted pass, (exit shadow at 40d elev then descend in the NE splitting Merak and Dubhe, UMA), trying to acquire an NIST signal so I was only able to observe from one minute prior to ten minutes after the pre-dawn pass using: Starshine3 1 00001U 1 000 01263.13079115 .00000000 00000-0 00000-0 0 15 2 00001 67.0499 83.6508 0005594 254.2442 326.7804 15.31914967 11 If this is an accurate tle, and if it is flashing, then it is dimmer than 4.0 as I observed naked eye, scanning from time to time with binocs. So....where is it?
