You've missed it.
Flew over on re-entry around 12:20 am Sunday Morning.

I didn't see it either, but this was a few hours later when I last the the re-entry.
First time of shuttle re-entry with no clouds (finally).

Not sure if the Sun helped reflections around 9PM, when I last saw it (2 years ago).
Next time, I'll have my camera pointing in the same direction, but with the long exposure in process.

It should capture the "sparks".

The the next mission, runs at a shorter inclination, meaning it doesn't come as far South or North as this past mission.
So, you'll have to wait 2 more missions to see a re-entry.
