Just been out for a peek, WOW, not seen it before, and that thing is REALLY bright!

Gonna try and get someone over with a decent 'scope tomorrow. Yeah, i know how to live!

Oh, and if you're cool enough to be on android, i can heartily recommend "satellite AR" for picking it up. good stuff.

http://www.heavens-above.com/ is a great resource to find what you can expect to see in the near future at your location. Iridium flares are my personal favorite.
