Re: ISS

Jim & Donna Opalek Nov 23, 2003

Last night as I was working on my Messier binocular list, I inadvertantly caught the ISS coming out of the Southwest shortly before 6 PM CST (near Nashville, TN). I followed it as it slid south of Vega, through Draco and just north of Polaris before it began to fade and finally disappeard in the northeast. When I tried to duplicate this with Guide, it shows the ISS (if I have the right satellite) at -84 degrees Altitude and at an Azimuth of 117 degrees. Can anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks,

Jim
