Details:
The X-37B Space Plane is only 29 feet long. X-37B had Brightness (mag) 0.1 at 06:32pm EST with a max pass of 83°. You can see the size Comparison chart next to the Space Shuttle I put together for you to see the difference. The seeing weather was "POOR" cold and very windy. I was able to get some shapes from it. My imaging configuration was an Edge HD 14 ′′ telescope with an Baader Red 610 nm Longpass 1.25" Filter on a ZWO ASI174MM (mono) camera and Baader Planetarium Carl Zeiss 2x Barlow Lens with an extender all in a MoonLite focuser on a Atilius Orion EQ-G mount modified by Emmanuel Rietsch with his satellite tracking system he made for me. I hope for "GOOD" seeing conditions on an X-37B pass soon so I can share a better images and video with you. Kind regards to ALL. 🙂
