    Unfortunately no pics. I was driving at the time, but was clearly noticable above the bright street lights. Definitely looked like something burning up entering the atmosphere.

    Coincidence yes, but definitely not the ISS - the co-ordinates and time are way off:

    ISS Mon May 11/10:50 PM Elev: 26 Approach: 10 above SW Depart: 14 above ESE

    Yes i was the same - driving as well! I think its too low down to have been the ISS.

    There was like a plummey smoke tail on it! Just couldnt believe my eyes! I thought it was a plane or something.
