There’s an ISS pass due about 22:10, and you should be able to see Dragon about 5 mins later, apparently (don’t blame me if you can’t :lol:)

10:15 according to the BBC but it’s very low on the horizon so you’ll need a good vantage point
How about not having a sig at all?

I mean, that was impressive, but the NASA administrator sucking Trumps cock really put a sour taste in my mouth.

Saw something go by around 1015, not sure if it was the ISS or the capsule. I assumed it was the ISA as it was pretty visible.

Same. Think I've got the neighbour into it as well as he came out to look again.

What was weird though was at about 10.16 we saw something really bright suddenly appear due south which then briefly headed north before fading and disappearing. Meteor?

It was also nice to see Doug and Bud - the team Daddies apparently - doing their hand jiving and general chilled attitude once zero-G was acheived. And the spangly dinosaur they released into the cabin as the zero-g test device.
