 I never thought to take a picture of the space station. What was really neat to see was the space shuttle leaving the space station. We had a big C-band dish at the time and I watched the NASA chanel to see where the two would be as they separated.  They separated before flying over the midwest and you could see the shuttle pulling away from the station in the time they were in view.
 It was neat to see.

I love catching fly-overs.  I've seen some neat shots where people have captured the ISS as it transits the moon (which takes about .4 of a second).  The neatest was the ISS over the moon, over the sun - yes, during an eclipse.

I was told that there was a website which would predict when the ISS would be overhead.
Does anyone know the web address?
