According to Heavens-Above.com, this satellite should be 'Flashing rapidly (2-3 times per second) - a very interesting object to observe!'. But I didn't observe any flashing during its pass tonight. The satellite maintained a steady magnitude as it passed Leo (see photo above). Nikon coolpix 995 camera, 8 seconds, f2.6, F8.2mm, ISO800, Noise reduction on.
