Hello to everyone. I sent this link to Todd since he’s practically my next door neighbor; for his approval. So now I’m sending it along to all of you. Since I sent the link I’ve gotten a bit better at recognizing some of the geography as it passes by quickly. You’ll want to bookmark this page it can be addicting. As I click on send the view from overhead is of clouds pinking up for a sunset. Don’t miss it. Regards, Margie T. Astoria Oregon

Here’s something positive to share with everyone. This link is a LIVE HD view from the International Space Station. It was featured in this month’s Sky and Telescope Magazine. Now I’m no map maker and have only been watching for a week but it’s really cool. A sunrise and a sunset every 90 minutes. Switching camera’s right now so I think I missed the sunrise somewhere. Haven’t been able to pick out actual locations below but I think I’ll get better at it as I watch. Since it is in real time there is a counter that shows how many people are watching world wide.
