Atlantis...a tiny speck on the sun

Here's the video of Atlantis crossing the sun this afternoon.
Not very impressive I'm afraid as the shuttle presented a very small target 
( 12 arc seconds ) and was further down the disk than predicted.As a 
consequence , you can just see it track bottom left , coming in at cluster 
904 ( it should have been quite well north of the two groups 904 and 
909)........... 909 is "just" visible.
