STSS-ATRR rocket again

Yesterday evening it cleared, and I observed the STSS-ATRR (09-023A) through the ETX-70, and photographically also its rocket (09-023B). In addition, I captured the KeyHole satellite USA 186 (05-042A).

The pass of the STSS-ATRR rocket (09-023B) provided the nice image below, showing it while crossing Lyra.
