sooo according to the text here - it doesnt get down to altitude of 100 klm till over/aligned with Glendambo? and is estimated to be about mag -5 at this point, at maximum brightness, when viewed in NW at about 15d above horizon? so some 100(s?) of klm to the NW of town of Glendambo still? - are they talking about just the small sample container, the fridge sized mother craft - is that long burned up before? how far apart will they be at this point? might be going for a drive , stayed at glendambo for total eclipse back in '02, neat place
