ISS and Shuttle last night passing over
Posted: Fri Nov 27, 2009 6:31 pm
I was just leaving work last night and I looked up...
there was the ISS passing...
how did I know?
Well...
once you've seen it a few times it's really unmistakeable.
What was even cooler was to see the Space Shuttle following very
close behind.
It had just undocked and was dropping back and away on its route home to earth.
They looked really majestic as they both passed under a crescent moon
and the brilliant jupiter.....
I think sometimes we take this kind of 'sighiting' for granted.
This is stuff that we will be happy to recount to our grandkids when the
day (if ever!) comes!
