Will it be visible in south eastern Arizona?
I just checked and they have moved the decay to the next orbit, much lower in the sky and more to the east. Curiously they have added what looks like a disclaimer reading "probably decayed/landed". So I rather doubt it will be seen from here or Arizona. They are, however, calling for the shuttle (should it launch on time) to cross the Moon as seen from near SPOC Monday evening. Oh, and I'll close with the best _ground based_ shot I've seen yet of the ISS and STS: http://www.esa.int/esaCP/SEMTFDPR4CF_index_1.html If amateurs can do that well, I can only imagine what the pros can do with Baker-Nunn cameras.
