Cool! - bttt - thanks for posting.

I watched the Space Station fly-by earlier this evening.
7 minute duration. Looked bigger than I thought it’d be 250 miles up.

It’s a big’un. As a, hmm, teen I guess, one night I stood with some cousins at the appointed time to watch Skylab go over. It was smaller than the ISS, and about as far up. Still was easy to see. :^) Somewhere around here I’ve got one of those Space Society posters with a piece of it that survived reentry.
