I could not see tonights due to overcast. I've see the ISS many time. Looks like a bright star moving across the sky rapidly......MGC

Thanks so much for posting the links! We saw the Shuttle and ISS pass over last night. The kids thought they were so special, getting to stay up past their bedtime. Indeed it did look like a bright star that travelled across the sky from the west to the south. Very cool!

Oh darn, I missed this thread. I'll keep my fingers crossed that it'll be clear tonight.
