No, that's right. It's not visible from the US. During the closest part of the pass, it will be over the US, but during local daytime. > The start of the action (for me) is in Gemini at 21:50 EST (10 PM). Closest/fastest pass is around 22:00 UT (5 PM EST). See the animation at <http://orsa.sourceforge.net/atwork/Rosetta/Earth_from_Rosetta_using_ORSA.gif>, which shows the earth as seen from Rosetta during the pass. -John __________________________________ Celebrate Yahoo!'s 10th Birthday!
