| Name | RMark F |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | First sighted in Ursa Major, just above the bowl of the Dipper. Bright white and slow moving, but no fragmentation one might expect from 'space junk' I've seen before. Semi-persistant train ~15° in length, became somewhat wavy as it approached the horizon as if the object were tumbling. Faded into the haze at azimuth ~120°. |
