ISS was created by albertw
Will be visible for the first time ever from Ireland tonight according to the 7pm news on newstalk 106. 'blazing' exaggeration is one thing but thats just plain wrong!

No need to mention where the story came from or who was in the soundbite :roll:

I asked said individual about this and heres what he said to me;

"There might have been something about the shuttle and the external fuel tank being visible for the first time, but I think I said "only once before in the 25 year shuttle history"
