I got a nice note from fellow FPSpacer Max White
in which he reminded me that time is running
out for chances to see the Mir Space Station
again before it comes down at the end of February.
There are a number of satellite orbit prediction
sites out there. My favorate for here in the States
is at: http://bester.com/satpasses.htm . Taking a
look at it for a nearby large city shows a good
viewing opportunity coming up at the end of next week.
I have see Mir a number of times over the years.
Hopefully I will get at least one more opportunity
with clear skys.
