Re: [amsat-bb] Shuttle Visual

[John Magliacane <magliaco@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Hubble Space Telescope and the Space Shuttle Discovery were both
visible shortly after their separation in New Jersey (40 degress north)
last evening during a "rare" 16 degree elevation pass.  With only about
600 feet between them, they appeared as a single object to the naked eye,
but it was pretty neat nonetheless.

Happy Holidays, everyone!  :-)
