HST flare up
Last night at around 18:55 the HST made an unusual pass over my location, it was unusual in that it flared like an Iridium. It was predicted to be 1.8 mag. but it would have been closer to -2.0 and at the flare peek it was around -8.0. I have been reading that sometimes the aft skirt on the telescope can cause this type of reflection just like an Iridium.
