5-31-10

11:10 last night marked the first attempt to find the mysterious US Air Force space plane X-37B. We finally got a satellite tracker for my Mom's ipod, which was actually really helpful.

On May 30th it had a dim magnitude of 3.5. You were supposed to be able to see it in the west... but the maximum elevation was only 34 degrees.

My Dad thought he saw something, but we lost it.

Then my Dad saw something else, but it was closer to the east. We think it was another satellite. It was extremely dim.

Hi, everyone. Thanks for reading. I should probably mention that I won't be posting again until the summer. School keeps me really busy. See ya in June~
