Click on the link below which takes you to the NASA site. Once on this site note country on the lower left and select United States/Florida/Tallahassee(or whatever city ur in), and you will see the schedule for tonight and other interesting data. We did not learn of this site until last night. This is info from a lady my mom knows who works at NASA as the one who calculates the corrections needed for the ISS to maintain its orbit.
The Endeavor separated from the ISS yesterday and will appear first over the horizon at 9:04 PM at roughly 47 degrees above NW and disappear at 11 degrees above SE after a 3 minute period. The ISS will appear at 42 degrees above WNW at 9:07 PM, and be visible for 4 minutes before going over the horizon at 10 degrees above SE. Note two things. First, assuming you were in an area where you could see horizon to horizon the Endeavor will be disappearing to the south as the ISS shows up at WNW. Secondly, for those of you who watched this show Monday night, note that the ISS will come up at WNW tonight rather than NW as it did on Monday so it will appear a bit more to your left, theoretically the half way point between due west and northwest.
The max height for the Endeavor tonight is 81 degrees while the ISS is 74. Straight up is 90 so barring cloud cover and assuming you know where north is at your home you should be able to see it even if only for a short period. In a confined area like that it would only be visible about a minute or less and remember, it's really moving fast. Enjoy!
