>JULES VERNE AND THE ISS:  The European Space Agency's new robotic cargo 
>carrier, the Jules Verne, has parked itself in orbit 2000 kilometers ahead 
>of the International Space Station.  This sets the stage for some beautiful 
>double flybys in the nights ahead--the Jules Verne appears first, as bright 
>as a 1st magnitude star, followed four and a half minutes later by the even 
>brighter International Space Station. This is a must-see for sky watchers 
>in cities and countryside alike.  Visit http://spaceweather.com for flyby 
>photos and timetables.
