I'm going to try ang grab an image later. Probably widefield with a camera is best, as it's too fast for the scope.

RE: The worst result possible.

I panicked, as is obvious. Would have had more time if it hadn't ducked behind cloud.

Oh well, better luck next time.

Yes, just put Stellarium into fast mode and there she is, hopefully she will be visable, I mean that it is not in shadow, if so then your out of luck :(, fingers crossed.

Ran outside with my minocular at 20:37 and got a glimpse of it passing over. Looking forward to the next pass.

Dead Chuffed.

Last time I seen it was when the Soyuz had a problem docking and stood off, was great to see both heading across the heavens in tandem, is a sight to behold even by itself :)

So, now you see it now you don't lol, I put a camera on a 3" refractor and all set up to manually track it. Came over the houses, west to east and after 3 sec it was gone, into shadow, no time to even think of pressing the shutter. Well maybe another time :).
