1 Space Station flyover on Wed Nov 19, 2008 5:28 pm

The space station and the shuttle fly over Winnipeg at 6:47 pm Thursday 20th. Weather should be clear so good opportunity to get a look. With the shuttle docked the space station looks bigger and brighter than normal. If you've never seen this before it's worth a look. Free family entertainment!

Details on where to look: (select Winnipeg and hit "next sighting")

Wow, imagine how much revenue the city could generate from setting up just one photo radar in space.

It's all about the foreplay when it comes to these matters.

Lucky, my cat, says he doesn't know of any of his buddies that are at all concerned with foreplay.

So, does the space station have a white strobe and a red strobe? Not sure if what I saw was ISS or an airplane.....
