Hello,
I think we were observing them  together last night (Jun 3rd, 21:11 UT). I don't
know how about you, but that was my first shuttle sighting. I was so impressed!
Two manned spacecraft in just 3-4 minutes! Wow! I've always wanted to go to Cape
Canaveral, but yesterday it came to me. The observation was done from Szczecin
(Stettin), Poland.

By the way, where can I download fresh STS91 elsets?
                                                                      Clear skies,
                                                                                GK
