>DOUBLE SPACESHIP FLYBYS:  Space shuttle Endeavour is scheduled to undock 
>from the International Space Station on Monday, August 20th.  If that 
>happens as planned, sky watchers across North America may be able to 
>witness something rare and beautiful: a double-spaceship transit across the 
>night sky. US cities favored for flybys on Aug. 20th or 21st include 
>Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Denver, Detroit, Las Vegas, New York and Phoenix. 
>  The space station and shuttle will appear as separate, bright points of 
>light moving in tandem.  Flyby times depend on where you live. Subscribers 
>to Spaceweather PHONE (http://spaceweatherphone.com) will receive phone and 
>email alerts when the pair are about to appear.  Flyby timetables are also 
>available from Heavens Above (http://heavens-above.com).
>
>BONUS: The International Space Station is under construction, and with each 
>new addition the sprawling complex becomes easier to see from the ground.  
>To the naked eye, the space station now resembles a super-bright star 
>gliding slowly across the sky.  Backyard telescopes reveal much more: solar 
>panels, laboratories and living modules, a robotic arm and docked supply 
>vessels. Photos and videos are featured on this weekend's edition of 
>http://spaceweather.com.
