I had occasion a few days ago to witness the two up in the sky for about 2
minutes, flying in tandem formation (I'd say they were flying "a centimeter"
apart, though of course that doesn't mean a thing in that context). I'm not
normally following current space news, but they just happened to broadcast a
short info on the radio station I was listening to a few minutes before, and as
it happened I was just arriving at home right in time, and the sky was perfectly
clear. A nice ending for an otherwise wrecked day.
