Iridium Flare? ISS?
Last night (5 Sept) I was standing at Hornsby Station waiting for a bus the time was 18:14 and I looking west at the sight of Venus/Jupiter/Spica that has been so prominent is the evenings recently. About 10 degrees to the upper right of Venus I saw a dim but moving object tracking down and to the right it brightened considerably for a couple of seconds and then faded away. Any ideas what it was I saw?
