Iridium flare tonight. Start looking ESE at 8:05 pm. This will be a very bright and high flare. There will also be two more tonight at 11:10 and 11:19. Look WSW for those. And one at 3:31 am tomorrow morning. Look ESE.

Other satellite schedule for tonight:
Cosmos 1206 Rocket 21:16:26 S
Cosmos 1143 Rocket 21:18:21 NNW

The sky is supposed to clear somewhat by tonight. Don't know if I will get any pictures though. Not feeling too well. Thought it was mostly allergies, but seems to be some flu mixed in. Yuck. I have been taking lots of night sky pictures, but haven't posted the results lately. I intend to get that Mercury/Crescent Moon conjunction next week, if the clouds cooperate. Maybe I'll post that, something different.
