Right now
The most recent data we hold from NOAA arrived 7 hours ago, and this point is not in it. We record detections, not passes: an absence is not proof that nothing is there.
2 other detections within 20 km in the last 24 hours, the nearest 4 km from here.
This alert expired on 21 July 2026 at 16:30 UTC. It is kept here as a record.
It is the 10th strongest of the 80 detections recorded within 20 km of this point since 16 March 2026. Another comparable one was recorded here earlier the same day. 6 more were recorded here in the fortnight before it.
