I've just had the chance to observe a nice Mir/STS-91 passage (9/9/98 01h19 UT) from my location (46.853N,70.953W). STS-91 was leading Mir by less than 10 degrees and 16sec. I'm assuming the order from the fainter magnitude of the leading object. Too bad this the end of an era. Clement Drolet Beaumont, Qc, Canada cdrolet@globetrotter.qc.ca
