Hello,

A few hours before docking, I saw Endeavour and ISS passing at a maximum
height of about 10 degrees today.  They were spaced by some 3 degrees with
Endeavour probably as the leader.

The first satellite was about one magnitude brighter(mag 0) than the
second.  The second satellite(which I presume was ISS) had a reddish
colour.(which can be expected from ISS).

Transit was at 17h49m UTC over Belgium.

Maybe some pictures on the BWGS site tomorrow.

Greetings,
