One of those things that, if you just think about it for longer than the usual 4 seconds, is absolutely amazing...thanks!
I cropped the second link long and thin, and it spans across the 2 monitors of my computer desktop, with the shuttle in the top RH corner.

I saw them pass over Delaware last week. Knew it wasn't a jet. No noise and no recognition lights that I could see. And it was moving like a bat out of h3ll.

Cool!

We were out flying the other night and saw the smoke trail from the satellite launch at Wallops Island.
