pps. The ISS did it's thing from n/west to n/east around 9.30. Was extremely bright, ~mag 0/-1. Very speedie beast too. No pics tho!
ah it was the ISS, I thought it must've been.

The kulnura gang saw this last night as well, saw it as it appeared just over the N/W horizon and followed it all the way to the N/E. I agree with it's brightness too - I estimated it at about -1, as it was easily as bright as Sirius when it went near it.

A spectacular sight.
