    I have just been able to follow ISS (with Discovery attached) for about  1 
    minute,
    from 19:12:30 U.T.   to 19:13:30 U.T.  on August 16. This is more than 30
    minutes before local sunset. This is one of very few daylight sightings that  I
    have made,  the last one probably being 1994 November 6 of STS-66.
    (not including daylight Iridium flares). I was using 11X80 binoculars.
    
    
    Best wishes,                     Total observations:   184437
