Re: The Shuttle is Flying!
The weatherman on one of the Boston TV stations got in on the act. Of course, I missed most of his talk, but the upshot was the Shuttle (or maybe the ISS) is supposed to pass close to the Moon this evening, which, by the silly sightings webpage, is at 9:17+. The clouds are already gathering...

The reason I call it silly, is the old website had a simple map showing the sky. This one you have to figure out azimuth and elevations. 350 Deg E of N -- isn't that like 10 deg west of north? This is why I got a computer, to do these calcs for me!
