One minute later, the second Iridium flash appear. Iridium 51 reach the magnitude -5.5, but I snap with a little delay, whence its smaller brightness, estimated between -2 and -4.
I have composited the two photos for this picture. As I have re-frame between the two photos, this is only an estimation of the relative position. I've composited them with the previsions given by Calsky. The composite allow to compare the brightness of the two flashes.
