Spot the Space Station
If you're out watching the twilight sky in the time frame from 45 to 90 minutes before sunrise, or 45 to 90 minutes after sunset, you'll might see a few "moving stars." They are most likely artificial satellites.
The brightest of all is the International Space Station, and this month provides some great opportunities to see it from just about anywhere.

Spacewalkers Remove Explosive Bolt from Russian Craft
Cosmonauts successfully removed an explosive bolt from a Russian Soyuz spacecraft during a Thursday spacewalk.
Space station commander Sergei Volkov and flight engineer Oleg Kononenko dealt calmly with the unusual operation outside the International Space Station (ISS) as first-time spacewalkers, despite early troubles setting up a Strela hand-powered crane to reach the work site.
