    A few obs on a cold and stormy evening.
    
    At 18:16 UT I saw ISS low in the west. It was dark orange and
    mag 3. Towards the zenith it brightend to mag 0 and became more
    and more white. ISS still got brighter up to mag -3 all the way 
    down to the east where it faded away in the earthshadow and 
    became orange again. But a faint white light remained, it was
    mag 7, hard to follow further towards the horizon. I presume
    the Shuttle's payloadbay flootlights were on.
