    Same here Mike, although a bit of high patchy cloud in the way  ....and I 
    cant match the quality of your images   ! :O)

    I think Tristan saw the bright reflections from Endeavour and the starboard 
    array which may have given the impression of two separate objects.
    
    Nice to be able to pick out the shuttle for a change !
    
    Total cloud cover here by the time ATV was due :o(
