The 22:03 STS/ISS pass from Village Inn tonight was fun (we practically emptied the place out as so many people wanted to watch the show) but for me the big show was the 23:37 pass. I knew they were going to pass close to the Moon but from here at Stansbury they just skimmed by the bottom of the Moon missing by maybe 15 arc minutes at most. Bummer. It was so close it would not surprise me to hear from Boyd in Tooele that he saw a transit from there. I should have traveled south... Anyone have any better luck than me tonight? pw
