YT2095 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 as some may or may not know, a small but Very expensive toolkit was lost by an astronaut last week, BUT it`s been spotted by an amateur astronomer in Ontario: http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20081125/tool_bag_081125/20081125?hub=TopStories and the footage: that must be some kinda setup that guy has!

Flashman Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 He only has a 100mm refractor apparently, stand by, finding the story that mentions his equipment... Ah this is it... http://www.thestar.com/sciencetech/article/543342 Doesn't say what sort of video camera he used though, "professional" style cooled CCD, converted webcam, hacked handycam or what.

ajb Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I have been told you can see it using binoculars. It should be visible just in front of the ISS. I think you can find details from spaceweather.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
