The shuttle undocked from Mir an orbit later than planned, according to Florida Today Online. The Russians wanted more time to check out the new computer. Undocking occured at 1728 UT, so the New Caledonia pass was only about 21 minutes later. I wonder if that's a record for how soon after an undocking that a Seesat observer has had a viewing opportunity? P.S. Mike McCants provided me with help about my problems finding NOAA 4, so armed with the new info I'll keep trying. It might be about half the size I thought it was.
