Based on predictions that Sue Worden sent to me (Thanks, Sue!), it looks like *IF* the Space Shuttle launches on time (17:45 EST, 16:45 CST, 22:45 Dec 4 UTC) today, folks in Texas and some other states (and maybe northern Mexico?) may have an opportunity to see both in the sky at roughly the same time early this evening on Endeavour's first orbit. I don't know if Endeavour predictions will be available on http://www.Heavens-Above.com soon enough, but you can get ISS predictions for this evening from there or various sources as well as your prediction software. Right now it appears that ISS will be higher in the sky and in the lead, perhaps by less than 30 seconds. Shuttle.nasa.gov says the weather at the Cape looks good for launch this evening.
