Space Station Passes Over

Last night we were alerted to watch for the passing of the Space Station about an hour past sunset. It was a clear night and the moon had no risen so we had a great view. Photographing was this was clearly beyond the capability of my camera and personal skill. But as it passed overhead, it looked this size of a planet and was still in the brilliant sunshine - fun to watch. Thanks again to the skipper of Tarwathie for this astronomical tip.
