Sorry I missed something here?

It is the Challenger Crew I pictured and I do understand the original reentry pictures of debris were those of the Columbia shuttle disaster.

Challenger = Liftoff
Columbia = Re entry

Check your location, y'all might get a good view.

It's pretty easy to figure out their system for directing you to how to see it. For the most part the ISS looks like a dot of light. As for the numbers, For the compass direction, look that direction. For the number, look that number of degrees with the horizon being 0 and directly above you being 90. The thing will take an apparent arc pattern to your POV, so you can get an idea about what it'll do by the entry/exit numbers. If you don't, the first time you spot it in the sky you'll figure it out.

I'm in Cincinnati, and it looks like we'll get a good view. Most of the time, if it comes into view it's less than a minute and a short path. Lucky for us, it looks like shortly after the shuttle detaches, we'll get a 4 minute view of each.

I appreciate it, and I'll sure as hell try to get others to appreciate it.

You're so inspiring!

thanks

Landing tomorrow is 11.57am EST (4.57pm GMT), it's always cool to watch it coming into earth's atmosphere.

Meanwhile, this new NASA video of STS-133 is cool, it shows some brand new camera angles, not seen during regular nasa tv coverage. Good soundtrack too.
