Right now

The most recent data we hold from NOAA arrived 1 minute ago, and this point is not in it. We record detections, not passes: an absence is not proof that nothing is there.

One other detection within 20 km in the last 24 hours, 17 km from here.

This alert expired on 22 June 2026 at 03:00 UTC. It is kept here as a record.

It is the 7th strongest of the 552 detections recorded within 20 km of this point since 10 March 2026. Another comparable one was recorded here earlier the same day. 129 more were recorded here in the fortnight before it.
