Was still flying when they passed over Two Rivers, Wisconsin.

Very, very cool

The shuttle is in a lower orbit and actually had a lighted tail here.

I've never seen that before. Cool stuff.

Skip Towne 09-09-2009 07:51 PM

I missed it. Too much cloud cover.

BigVE 09-09-2009 07:51 PM

Enters from the NW and exits NE here. This time they are 2 minutes apart.

If I am reading it right it should be much lower/closer to the horizon tonight compared to last night.

applet gives different times on 'next pass' and next sighting.

Pitt Gorilla 09-10-2009 08:16 PM

They were visibly separate the night before as well, just not as far apart as they were last night. If only I had posted a thread about that...

scorpio 09-10-2009 08:19 PM

Just saw it, very cool. Thanks for the heads-up.

cdirty 09-10-2009 08:24 PM

too cloudy tonite.

BigVE 09-10-2009 08:30 PM
