Viewed from Lincoln, UK aroung 20:30 UTC by a group of us after a meeting of the local Astronomical Society - the gap was extremely noticeable! The ATV was 15-20s ahead of ISS at magnitude 2. ISS reached about mag -2 at the start of eclipse entry. ATV will now move behind the ISS to a distance of 39 km before the first docking attempt March 3: http://webservices.esa.int/blog/blog/1/ Bob Christy 53.2 deg North 0.6 deg West > -----Original Message----- > From: John Locker [mailto:john@satcom.freeserve.co.uk] > Sent: Tuesday, April 01, 2008 10:53 PM > To: SeeSat-L@satobs.org........... > Subject: ATV/ISS confounded by cloud.........again ! > .........I managed a few grainy frames at different points in the pass, the gap between ATV and Zvezda was not that noticeable.............
