    Hi all

To go with the video of yesterdays Atlantis solar transit

http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/satcom_transits/Atlantis_.wmv  ( again 
you need your Xray specs )

...I have placed at

http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/satcom_transits/Atrack.jpg

a diagram showing how I expected the track to run ( red line ) and the 
actual ( blue line)
The insert is how calsky predicted the track after the elements were 
updated....which unfortunately took place as I travelled to the remote site 
:o(

Circled is Atlantis...and above that an enlarged image of the shuttle.
Dont be fooled by the apparent triangular shape of the enlargement......I 
suspect that is just an optical illusion.

Also marked are the two main sunspot clusters....906  out of frame  and 909 
just visible.

John
