    Now they plan to raise the orbit of the iss on Oct 18 at 8:37 UT
    
    After the burn the iss will have a predicted perigee of 209.8 and apogee of 
    222.7 nautical mile orbit.
    
    Here's the predicted orbit before and after the burn
    
    ISS
    1 25544U 98067A   02291.26516414  .00020000  00000-0  26000-3 0  9019

    I didn't get to see the iss and shuttle close together, because it's cloudy 
    here :( Maybe next time.
