Details:
Having seen notice of passes of OTV X-37B over the US, I was able to observe and photograph tonight's pass, as it was clear outside.
It was an interesting sight, knowing that this is a "secret" vehicle and considering that it has been in orbit for over 780 days. This pass had a maximum height of about 46 degrees to the southwest as seen from my location, and a magnitude of 0.7. This image is a 3-second exposure at ISO 400, with a 30mm lens, looking south after it's maximum elevation was reached. It has been gamma-adjusted to make it brighter.
