Hi there. I live in St. George and according to the local paper, Local Sunrise is at 7:40, so the flyover should occur 45 minutes before sunup. I leave the house every morning at 7:15 for a walk and it's still early twilight. This morning Venus and the Moon were a beautiful sight. I could still see Venus at 7:35. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Patrick Wiggins" <paw@trilobyte.net> To: "utah astronomy listserve" <utah-astronomy@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Monday, January 27, 2003 11:16 PM Subject: [Utah-astronomy] Shuttle reentry update, 23:08, 27 JAN 2003

I've just received the new ground track map. It's posted in the "SHUTTLE REENTRY OVER S. UTAH" section of http://planet.state.ut.us .

I did not include the "height above horizon" lines in this version since now that reentry will occur after local sunrise, it may not be visible from as far from the ground track as it would have with darker skies.

Best bet now, IMHO, is you'll probably want to be as close to the ground track as possible.
