Hello Jerry:

Based on Starry Night, the Shuttle was about 360km away at closest and ISS
about 390km away. At 300,000 km/sec (speed of light), we are talking about
1/1000 of a second for light to get from there to here. Not sure how far
apart they were, but do not think that it was very much different than
that.
