Good thing she didn't drop the keys to the shuttle.
That'd be a hell of a AAA service call!

Cool- heres what i got

In orbit above your location:

Lacrosse 3

Genesis 2

USS Enterprise

There are hundreds of spacecraft in Earth orbit and most are visible from your back yard--if you know when to look. We cut through the confusion by narrowing the list to a handful of the brightest and most interesting. At the moment we're monitoring the Lacrosse 3 spy satellite, the International Space Station, the Early Ammonia Servicer and NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. Check your flyby times and enjoy the show!

What the heck is "the Early Ammonia Servicer"?

Yep, toolbag and genesis 2 are here now.

On the day of the Terb party you've got the toolbag, the Endeavor, the ISS, and the Lacrosse I wonder if it's a sign. Too bad I won't be here to see it.

The best nights (early evening- check schedule) to see the tool bag is Dec 5, Dec 7, or Dec 9 when it will be almost directly overhead but the magnification is so low (5.6 - the higher the number the dimmer it is) it would be impossible to see anywhere with the naked eye and very hard near city lights to see without really good binoculars or a telescope. The International Space Station is easily viewed on nights that it far enough above the horizon and a magnification of at least 0 or better.

Right now just after dark both Jupiter and Venus are really bright in the south western sky with Jupiter being the higher one and Venus being the lower brighter one.

I typed in the postal-code for my local Taco Bell, and Elvis showed up on the list. Should I be worried? I don't want to look up and see his rama-lama-ding-dong.

Anyone see a suitcase? Air Canada sent one of mine into outer space earlier this year.
