International Spacestation

I have been watching the progress on Spaceflight.nasa.gov and sighting opportunities and orbital tracking but could someone please explain these questions please.
Is the shuttle still attached to ISS
I know a supply ship goes up how does this dock and is it still attached. Saw the 2 sightings ever so clear here in England at 10 10pm and 11 44 pm on Tuesday but no sighting last night at 10 30pm sky too cloudy. Next sighting here is 11 50 pm tonight. Thanks

Sorry I should have said sighting tonight is 10 50 pm

You can watch a docking here.
A further spacewalk is scheduled for tomorrow (Friday, 15th), and there may be another after that to inspect and possibly repair the damage that occurred to the shuttle on take-off. So the return trip is still a bit up in the air, so to speak!! ;-)

Thanks for reply yes I have all that I can watch the up to date progress. What I wanted to know was is the shuttle still attached to ISS or is it still orbitting and dock later and how does the supply ship dock and is it still there or has it returned to earth and how often does supply ship go up. Have read lots of what goes on but not found out that bit. Thanks
