    My wife and I observed this morning's pass of STS-114
    followed by ISS in a bright sky at 11:16UT from
    Houston. STS-114 was about 0 followed by ISS which
    reached -2 in the west. Haze and thin cirrus in the
    sky. Mars was the only other object visible. Both
    spacecraft culminated at elevation 44 above the NW.
    STS-114 was leading by about 15+ seconds or so. 
    
    I had hoped to fly to Costa Rica today to intercept
    first deorbit path but found that my passport is still
    in DC waiting approval for an Algerian visa. No way to
    see the reentry unless it is delayed to Wedensday.
