Post by Groovy2 »


New Chinese space station has 2 rockets docking with in a few days
Tianzhou 2 launches May 20 - unmanned - supply /parts

June 10 -Shenzhou 12 launches - Manned - supply/ parts -
not sure on number of people they are 1st assembly crew -

both of these will dock with Chinese space station its getting bigger quickly -
will try to photo and will video also -

Station flyover is already pretty visible to V3 cam -

During ISS construction could see it getting bigger over time
early construction could see it being brighter with Shuttle docked to it -
I saw shuttle when it was short distance from ISS - Looked WoW

Booster rocket from both of these will fall back to earth somewhat un guided -
they are pretty good about splashing boosters in ocean - kind of hard to miss -
but never know we may get to see light show -

I figure Booster is going to be pretty close to Station track and use Heavens Above to
track where it is - Jay
