(This is getting a bit like the old " I saw Mir " days isnt it ! ) Anyway , low pass for me tonight as we are getting to the end of the visible runs , but out of interest I had a look at the complex at a range of about 750 km.( provides a good size reference for satellites out in the 7-800km orbits ) http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/satcom_transits/ISS750km.gif The clutter at the front end ( trailing to the right ) is I think Atlantis....possibly the bay doors Notice also a tiny light return slightly above and forward of the truss , which I think must be the tip of the starboard array. There's also a very sharp shadow across the outer end of the starboard truss.
