Space station and a shuttle!
The Shuttle Atlantis has undocked from the ISS, and preparing to land on Friday. In the meantime, tonight should be a great time to watch the two fly overhead, side by side.
Looks like they will be traveling approximately northwest to southeast, and a very bright magnitude -3.5. So, watch the sky tonight at about 5:48PM.

HERE is the data from Heavens-above.com.
Not much of a photo opportunity, but it's amazing to watch nonetheless. Should have clear skies, too.
