[Leica] Shuttle Launch

[leica at rcmckee.com (R. Clayton McKee)]

Seem to recall that someone here was going to be there...


SPACE SHUTTLE SKY SHOW: On Monday morning, April 5th, thousands of 
people gathered in Florida to witness the launch of space shuttle 
Discovery may get more than they bargained for. Just fifteen minutes 
before the shuttle takes off, the International Space Station (ISS) 
will fly over the launch site.  The station's path across the dawn 
sky takes it right past the gibbous Moon--a beautiful close 
encounter!  Photographers should be prepared for the ISS at 6:06 am 
EDT followed by Discovery's launch at 6:21 am EDT. Sky watchers with 
iPhones can prepare themselves by downloading our Simple Satellite 
Tracker (http://simpleflybys.com); it will guide you to the ISS and 
count down to the flyby so you can't miss it.
