NASA has a sightings calculator. Plug in your location. It's easy to spot with the naked eye.

yeah,..thnx for that proff....i was just amazed at how i could use google earth as a tool for approximately seeing what the shuttle was passing over...while staying at the same altitude...240 miles as the ship.

i think you may have missed the point of my message...i should of been more clear...no biggee..

thnx again for your acedemic response....i like to think outside the box sometimes..lol

...hey isn't that what nasa people do??

cheers,
