That seems like a great photo op. - from what I can see, the earlier in the evening the better.

I just found out that at around 22:41pm (depending on your location in Ireland) the space shuttle will pass the Moon and Jupiters field of view - the magnitude will be about 0.2.

Check out www.heavens-above.com/ for more information

NOTE : The time above is dependant on the launch time being correct, approx 20:50pm tonight Wednesday.

More information on the Shuttle Launch is available at

and www.nasa.gov/returntoflight/launch/index.html

with extra details on the countdown process (interesting), at

Thanks for that Shane
