    I saw the ISS last night during its 1958 CDT (0058 UTC) pass, and it
    behaved similarly. While in the penumbra, the orange was most prominent,
    and the vehicle had appeared bright white during the daylight portion of
    the pass. It was certainly all of the -2.4 magnitude Heavens Above promised.
    
    Another good pass should be available for us Austinites on Thursday
    evening CDT. Tonight's 0121 UTC pass is "only" -0.3.
