Iridium Flares

I visited http://www.heavens-above.com/ this evening, and discovered that in ten minutes time there would be a bright iridium satellite flying across where I live. It was very pretty - take advantage of the UK's current good weather and go and spot some.

Not seen any Iridium Flares lately but we managed to see a very bright pass of the ISS the other night. Thanks to very clear skies and the predicted times in the Spacewatch column in the Guardian.
