    Hi
    
    Thanks for the reminder. However broken cloud here in Poole, I only just managed
    to see STS 108 at 17:28 and ISS at 17:32
    Sorry no Starshine.
    I did however see ISS and the undocked STS 108 pass last night at 18:29. With my
    binoculars they were separate but only just, STS trailed ISS which was very much
    brighter. As Jean-Paul Cornec posted yesterday similar to a Binary Star. Naked
    eye they could not be separated.
    
    Clear Skies
