From the camera angle shown on CNN tonight it seemed the Atlantis was heading on a more northerly track, although certainly not a 50+ degree inclination. Given that Iraq is located between 30 and 36 degrees N, one might quess they were shooting for 36 if the payload is meant to support Desert Shield. If so, Atlantis (and its payload) should be visible over much of the continental U.S. tomorrow (Friday) evening. Hopefully T. Kelso can settle this soon. ============================================================= Cole Smith (lcs1h@virginia) Physics Dept. University of Virginia Charlottesville
