Double Iridium encounter for Tullamore Observers.

I have just found this on www.heavens-above.com - it is the estimate of 2 Iridium Flares passing very close by to each other within seconds from an observers point in Tullamore (53.2740°N, 7.4890°W):



Both are travelling in the same direction, and both are at the same altitude (distance up from the horizon) and azimuth, so it should appear as if one has just repeated itself, when in fact, it is one following the other.


I have also just got these figures for Tyrrellspass (where I live):



It turns out I can see these 2 same flares, at virtually the same time, but a magnitude brighter!


Seanie.
