(meteorobs) Utube link Re: Point Meteor or Flaring Satelite

[James Beauchamp]

Hi Marco, 
 
This particular one did move a little.  Others have been almost perfectly stationary.  I've been dumping the composite jpg's and mp4's into a special directory for fun.
 
I'm located in Oklahoma city.  I'll have to re-check this particular event for the date and time.
 
I'm pretty sure they are objects with big panels - just not "traditional" ones because of the stationary flare and az/el combinations.
 
Cheers.

If you have coordinates of your location, date and time (as accurate as 
possible, preferably to the second) of observation (in UT) and approximate RA 
and dec of the flash, I can try to identify it for you.

It looks to me I can see some movement on the video, so I think it is an object 
in LEO. The Keyholes can flare quite bright so could be one of those. They move 
in sun-synchronous orbits that repeat their groundtrack every few days.
