Hi all, Spent four hours this morning driving around the area chasing two solar transits by ISS/Discovery. My first chance ( 1046 BST ) was a wipe out due to cloud , so I couldnt check the predicted track ( had intended to use the first transit to check the predictions, then the second , one orbit later , to capture small FOV video ) However the second pass happened through a clearing sky , but winds gusting 20 knots.(1221 BST ) The track the spacecraft took on this transit was well south of the one I expected ( in fact it was more like the track that the earlier transit would have taken ).......and about 4 seconds late....so I suspect that somewhere between me checking the locations/timing etc this morning , using Calsky.com , and arriving on scene , a slight adjustment took place. Anyone confirm this please ? Many thanks, John ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
