DOUBLE FLYBY ALERT: This morning, March 7th, space shuttle Discovery 
undocked from the International Space Station. This sets the stage for a 
spectacular series of double flyby sighting opportunities. The station and 
shuttle will be flying over parts of the United States and Europe tonight 
and tomorrow, appearing in the night sky as a closely-spaced pair of bright 
lights. This is also a last chance to see Discovery in flight, because the 
orbiter will be retired after landing in Florida on Wednesday, March 9th.
