Just saw a wonderful pass of STS ands ISS - ISS was trailing by about 34
seconds.I used these elements:
STS-88
1 25549U 98069A 98348.33589634 .00002671 00000-0 33451-4 0 391
2 25549 51.5760 46.5188 0012787 238.8623 25.2647 15.59009731 1579
ISS
1 25544U 98067A 98347.84011585 .00011448 00000-0 15556-3 0 1178
2 25544 51.5918 49.0059 0009952 255.8308 104.1576 15.58067875 3698
They were VERY close or right on target.
They rose in NE, passed at 53 degrees elevation and set in the east -
shortly before sunrise. Shuttle was brighter except when ISS flared - it
was basically heading straight "for" the sun.
