Below are the rise and set times for STS-78 for selected US cities over
the next three days. This data was generated to help hams without orbit
programs to participate in the SAREX activities.  Please note that the
times shown are UTC and NOT LOCAL TIME.  This listing includes only those
passes with an elevation greater than 5 degrees. For information regarding
SAREX frequencies and operations procedures, check your local PBBS, or
bulletins from W1AW, W5RRR, W6VIO or WA3NAN.

Symbol key: rise = time that shuttle appears above horizon
            tca  = time of closest approach to observer and maximium
                   elevation
            set  = time that shuttle disappears below horizon
            el   = maximium elevation above horizon
            az   = azimuth at time of maximium elevation
            geo  = geometry: A = Ascending orbit,  moving south to north
                             D = Descending orbit, moving north to south
                             E = passes east of observer
                             W = passes west of observer

Element set 917 is valid until 10:30 UTC July 6, at which time an
orbit reboost test will raise the shuttle orbit by about one mile.
Predictions for times earlier than 10:30 UTC on July 6 are based on
set 917, predictions for later times are based on set 918. Landing
is currently scheduled to occur on orbit 272, predictions for later
orbits are provided in the event that the mission is extended. Early
morning passes may be visible depending on local lighting conditions.
