    Via the F-G forum on Novosti Kosmonavtiki, I learned of this photo taken by Richard Fleet, from the U.K. on 2011 Dec 05,
    near 17:07 UTC:

    I estimate the site to have been near 51.45 N, 2.25 W. The ~20 s exposure began about 17:07:02 UTC, and reveals eight
    brief minima, indicating rapid rotation.
