Last night when I watched the iss pass over, as it got to about mars in the sky I noticed another satalite at the side of it going at the same speed and direction exactly, does anyone know what it was ?

There were some astronauts going up there the other day, I wonder if it might have been the vehicle either meeting up or leaving? SWMBO has just tweeted NASA to ask.

A lot of people saw it, I didn't, the sky was a lovely shade of orange reflecting off almost complete cloud cover at that time, which cleared much later. She's not had a reply yet, but I'm not holding my breath TBH

We saw it too, there was a vehicle due to leave that docked 3-4 days ago?

I was thinking that, don't think it would be so obvious in a light polluted sky. I was kind of hoping it was ET, it would be nice to get an answer tho.
