Yup third night in a row, brightest object in the sky from London (apart from the moon), and it passed very close to Mars. It looks like a high and fast flying police helicopter with the searchlight turned on!

Just saw a nice pass here. It wasn't too overhead nor very bright, but I could clearly see 2 points of light, one of them with a reddish hue (array)... I wonder what the other was, maybe the Shuttle? And it had the added interest of knowing there were two people spacewaking in that very instant, preparing to add a European module... really inspiring!
Pity there was a group of children trying to know what I was doing and shouting from a building next to where I was...

Just passed here, saw it going into the shadow... then rushed back in and watched the same on the NASA TV web feed!!!
Let's see if I can spot the Progress, like TJL.
EDIT: No luck... damn buildings! :angry: :angry: -

Finally!!! after three days of overcast, snow and freezing rain the sky finally cleared and I just saw a beautiful pass almost directly overhead (75 degrees elevation). In Southern Ontario at 7:10 EST. Without question, the brightest star in the sky. Got to watch the shuttle/ISS star fade to black as it headed into orbital night. Wonderful sight.

Nice picture. I'm in SW Missouri, USA, and just saw it pass from NNE to ENE at about 17 deg. above the horizon. It was in view for about 2 minutes. It's supposed to be visible for about 4 minutes at 45 degrees or so tomorrow nite. Sadly, there's supposed to be some weather moving in tomorrow so my chances of a clear sky are at a minimum.

Try living in Buffalo NY. Viewings during the winter are few and far between. I've had some awesome passes scheduled, but the weather has not cooperated.
