Greetings!
My S4 is working great, 1.8 coils and all (mandatory Audi content).
For those of you that live near Denver, Sunday morning, 3-18, will
provide a rare spectacular naked eye view of the Space Station, as it
passes directly overhead from SW to NE. It is in a very low orbit
right now (about 200 miles - it started out at 400 miles altitude).
NASA is planning some very heavy Shuttle missions to help finish the
Station, and the lower the Station is, the easier it is to get up to
it. For those of you in Denver, you know you can easily see 100 miles
up and down the front range on a clear day. With any decent
binoculars, the Space Station should look like more than just a fast
moving light in the sky. It will start being visible in the SW just
after 6:04 in the morning, will be almost directly overhead (and
slightly SE) at 6:07, and disappear in the NE at 6:09+
By the way, I never owned a Scirroco, but I've had a Lancia Beta
Coupe (Fiat's finest) and a Delorean (good looks, little motor).
