What timing - the sky between Jupiter and Arcturus cleared perfectly moments before the flare. We were able to find the satellite before it flared and follow it along. So bright !
A few seconds later, there was a 2nd, not-as-bright object on a similar trajectory. We tracked it as it brightened and dimmed, but it was nowhere near as bright as the Iridium. No idea what it was.
3 for 3 so far ! Thanks again TomK.
