SB SAREX @ AMSAT $STS-70.008
STS-70 World R/S Times 07/17

Below are the rise and set times for STS-70 for selected worldwide
cities over the next four days. This data was generated to help hams
without orbit programs to participate in the SAREX activities.  Please note
that the times shown are UTC and NOT LOCAL TIME.  This listing includes
only those passes with an elevation greater than 5 degrees. For information
regarding SAREX frequencies and operations procedures, check your
local PBBS, or bulletins from W1AW, W5RRR, W6VIO or WA3NAN.

Symbol key: rise = time that shuttle appears above horizon
	    tca  = time of closest approach to observer
	    set  = time that shuttle disappears below horizon
	    el   = maximium elevation above horizon
	    geo  = geometry: A = Ascending orbit,  moving south to north
			     D = Descending orbit, moving north to south
			     E = passes east of observer
			     W = passes west of observer

Users are reminded that these prediction bulletins are generated to assist
new hams and others who have no prior experience tracking space shuttle
missions. Anyone seriously interested in space shuttle missions is
encouraged to obtain their own tracking software. Many different programs
are available over the internet, or by calling Amsat headquarters at
301-589-6062.
