Gonna be interesting to see and evaluate your obs brightness. During that
pass, the payload bay doors were closed and Shuttle orientation was so that
its black belly was facing the sun, quite probably leaving much of the
white upper side (which was in fact facing you almost directly until shadow
entry) in its own shadow.
(Negative obs here, unfortunately. That extra thick cloud cover looked
nice, though...)
