Won't detach until Monday!!

yeah looking at the live data site linked above it appears the shuttle is miles ahead of the ISS!! very confusing, either way saw it again tonight with the binoculars this time. Also had a quick gander at a few stars & constellations and stuff....must get up the downs away from the crappy street lights!
