    The two of these will be visible over Ireland tonight roughly in the same orbit traveling from west to east in the southerly sky, the fainter Shuttle leading ISS by one minute

    The Shuttle (STS-128) from 20-57 to 20:59:30, 26 degrees max elevation.
    ISS 20-58 to 21-02
    Another pass just before 10-30 but slightly lower in the sky

    Can't wait for it! I got my first tripod yesterday so this will be it's first proper outing. I hope the cloud cover in the sky in the west doesn't arrive too soon :eek:
