18h55m42s	Geosats flare season	Optimal day to observe flares from geostationary satellites! Geostationary satellites are usually very dim objects, comparable with Pluto. Today, some can get so bright for some minutes, that they can be seen with the unaided eye. Look for them at the optimal coordinates and time given below and with patience. The satellites will move slowly through the stellar field, about one or one cluster every 5 minutes. And the Geostationary satellites get totally eclipsed tonight. They disappear completely in the shadow of Earth at about the same spot on the celestial sphere one after the other, about one satellite or cluster every 5 minutes. With a little patience this can be easily observed through a smaller telescope. Umbral shadow eclipse: Satellites disappear at RA= 0h39m Dec=-5.8° and reappear at RA= 1h11m Dec=-5.8° Duration=29.1 minutes Optimal coordinates to look for geostationary satellites: RA= 1h16m Dec=-5.9° (Penumbra eclipse ends) The Sun is at Dec=-7.2° Optimal time to observe geostationary satellites is from 18h 43m to 5h 42m, but observeration of geostationary satellites is still possible during the rest of the night at the eclipse entry/exit points given above.
