    Dear List,
    
          I had the pleasure of watching a real nice pair of passes by the
    above-mentioned satellites earlier this evening with about a 30 minute
    interval between passes. The ISS was easily at 0.2 mag as indicated by
    Heavens-Above. As for the SOYUZ-TM33 pass, it lasted about 90 seconds
    and was also quite bright ... probably mag +2 in the worst case
    scenario. I acquired the satellite  at about 15-deg alt in the northwest
    and observed it go north of Polaris, through Cepheus and eventually set
    in the south-west.
    
    Anthony.
