31.7.13

A bit of colour

According to my satellite tracker this one is likely to have been Cosmos 338. I found it notable because of its distinctly reddish colour.
An enlargement of the trail seems to indicate the red component might be a series of erratic pulses but whether this is just a result of the photographic process or something else needs clarifying.
