what did you actually see?
because when i watch my monthly sky at night program, they were interviewing some ameteur astronomers who had been following the space station, and the clearest picture they could get was a slightly blurry one the size of a hand. but you could see the shuttle and the solar panels etc

You dont get to see close up, just fuzzy outline and what looks like a very bright star!!
