hi everyone
,
I was out observing with my telescope when i looked up and low in the south i saw a really bright dot,and as i have seen the iss before i think i could confirm that it was it but then about 1/2 a degree or so in front was another dot fairly bright,i'd say somewhere near 0 magnitude and it was moving in sync with iss and i didn't know if it was by chance that there was another sattelite or if it was a shuttle and so i checked heavens above and confirmed that what i was seeing was in fact the iss and space shuttle discovery which was pretty cool
for me as i have never seen a double transit before.
Just to let you guys know there i checked heavens above today (19/4/10)and it says that the iss( and space shuttle,i think it is not going to be docked) is coming over my place at low altidute to the south,so anyone living in south nsw,SA,victoria and Tasmania will be able to see it.
Clear skies
Orestis
