I didn't see the galaxy 11 satellite tonight in my binoculars. Could be as 
the moon is closer to the area, so it glare is washing that area of sky out.

I observed the milstar 3 satellite, it was faint to start, then between 6:47 
to 6:49 UTC it got much brighter. I could easily see an orange color to it. 
On the next pass it got bright again for only a few seconds.

Ended the night with a flashing ATLAS CENTAUR R/B. It was norad numbr 05816.

Will have to wait for more days to observe again, back to work.
