I am currently watching the Dish Earth channel. I noticed a straight line object that when I checked the Orbital Tracking, it appears to be the Space Station and Shuttle docked. Can you see that from the satellite or do I need to clean my screen? I see the object that is moving over South America @ 12:13 EDT.
Thanks for any help!

They are too far away and too small to see from the satellite. I think they are only 2000 miles from Earth.
 
Station and shuttle are 200 miles from earth, Earth cam is 23,000 so there is a distance of like 22,800 miles between that camera and the station.
 

1000.4 Eastern Arc signal levels?
