8:10 & 8:20

That's almost a 3,000 mile diference in entry points... I guess Russia is 'that' big huh?

I think our Russian friends know exactly when the burn is going to be and it's just the NASA PAO types that can't get it straight.

ISS crew reports they saw it however so maybe we'll see video later.

Well folks apparently the deorbit had some problems. Appears they had some trouble maintaining cabin pressure.

On a personal note, Jim Oberg the author of the above article posted on the usenet group sci.space.station a day or so ago looking for info on the incident. Nobody responded to him so I posted and suggested he play back the nasa tv recording of the undocking since I had heard talk of pressure problems at that time. He replied and suggested that I provide him a transcript vs his playing back his recording which he apparently did not bother to make! Yeah right I'm his transcript b1tch Sad

Oh well, Oberg was probably the last reporter I had any respect for......
