Space Station and Space Shuttle visible from the UK
And other places too. This is the first time in a while that they've both been visible together in UK skies (I think it was two or three shuttle missions back the last time), they'll be visible for another 5 or 6 days from the UK.
Together they come in at around magnitude -3 or there abouts. If you want to get the exact times for your location check out Heavens Above.

They put on a great show. I managed to watch the ISS go in to shadow simultaneously in the sky while on NASA TV on the laptop.
Whats even better is the next planned shuttle mission STS-118 will be visible with ISS over the UK too.
