A witness reports an observation made on March 17, 2009, between 8:10 PM and 8:15 PM. He observes, looking North, the passage of two white luminous points moving at constant speed from West to East and along a straight trajectory. On the day and at the time of the observation, the space shuttle was in its approach phase to the international station. The testimony is consistent with the observation of this "tandem." This case is classified "A": observation of the space shuttle and the ISS.
