GSE (6488) near Basra, Iraq

 As of 1300 local time, 6488 was located about 100 km north of Basrah, Iraq.  It is steadily making its way south, and we are still hopeful that it will settle at the Al Jahra Pools this winter.  Click on the map below and it will open in a new window and will be easier to view.

Oh yeah... today is Arab Environment Day.  Make it a good one!
