enough, orange-yellowish fairly bright/fuzzy spot of light, moving from
south to north at a speed obviously greater than other air traffic,
appeared as expected.

So you saw the three SSMEs that clearly after the boosters separated
from New Jersey? That's outstanding. I wonder if I would have been able
to see it from Central Connectcicut. Does anyone know if that would be
possibe?

Thanks.
