CONVERGING SPACECRAFT: "Early this morning, we saw space shuttle Atlantis playing catch up to the International Space Station," reports Frank Ryan Jr. of Shannon, Ireland. He photographed the spacecraft using his Meade ETX-125: image. "The brightness and speed of these objects as they passed overhead was wonderful. When the pair dock [later today], they should make an unmissable sight in the sky!"

Rivaling Venus in brightness, Atlantis and the ISS are easy to see through backyard telescopes. (The trick is knowing when to look.) Ryan captured his image using a 5-inch Meade ETX-125 telescope and a digital webcam. "I stacked 30 good frames and processed them in Registax. The results really surprised me!"
