Hi everyone; Saw the Station flying in tight formation with Progress at 00:04 EDT (04:04 GMT) low (19 degrees elevation) north of Michigan tonight. They were barely distinguishable as two objects. First time to spot them in formation like that. Had totally forgotton about Progress (in spite of reading mails about the sightings in the UK a few hours ago) until realizing that ISS really looked like a double image. No timings, no exact magnitude info, just a satisfied customer.
