According to your other posting there is supposed to be a passing tonight at 6:08 p.m. It should be darker at that time so maybe I can see it tonight.
Not knowing when they were going to shoot down the satellite I thought maybe that was what had happened this morning and a piece of it went by.
Is there a more diffinate time for the shootdown as it is rather cold to be standing outside from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. :-) Also what is the direction I should look? My exact location is Pasco, Washington. Where are you?
The satellite shoot down will be “Internet viewing only” for us I am afraid...they are intending to hit it way out over the Pacific (people on Maui may be able to see something). The eclipse is viewable for about a billion people...see:
