This object will be visible from Earth and can also be heard using a police scanner. It will probably be associated with issues of "fashion" especially since it's occurring as Venus goes Direct :::"Space Weather News for Friday, Feb. 3rd http://spaceweather.com
SUITSAT: There's a new satellite orbiting Earth, and it's a weird one. On Friday, Feb. 3rd, at 6:02 pm EST, astronauts threw an old Russian spacesuit overboard from the International Space Station. The disembodied suit, nicknamed SuitSat, is now circling Earth and transmitting a radio message which you can hear using a police scanner or ham radio tuned to 145.990 MHz (FM).
Please visit http://spaceweather.com for more information about SuitSat and how to tune into it."
