Patrick, Thanks for the heads up on ISS. My wife and two grandkids thank you too. It was a great view. The little ones are already talking about. One of them said that it was going to land on the moon. I guess it's time for "that" talk, and I don't mean the birds and the bees, eh?... B) Keep us informed of these timely events. You really help.

CH, It was hazy here in Ogden so I didn't see the other event. The Western sky was fair seeing, getting hazy near the moon overhead and the ISS was lost to the East before it got to the mountains. We came close to seeing it cross the moon, that would have been cool. I just hope that the grandkids can remember some of this event and maybe that will spark an interest in astronomy later on, eh?...

Yes, indeed! It was quite a sight from SPOC tonight as well.
Did you notice the other, fainter satellite in a roughly N-S polar orbit at the same time, Gary?
