ATV and ISS passes was created by R Newman
Look out for the ATV and the ISS tonight and over the next few evenings, tommorrow ESA plan for Jules Verne to move within 36 feet of Zvezda's aft docking port using a high-tech suite of optical sensors on the forward end of the ship. After retreating to a distance of 62 feet Jules Verne will fly away from the station, docking with the station, currently scheduled for Thursday at about 1438 GMT

Could be a interesting sight over the next couple of days.

Again cheers for the heads up. The ISS passovers can be spectacular (if really bright) and are always exciting to see.
