International Space Station Flyby

[WorkerBee]

I saw the ISS last night and it's quite bright. I could make out the general shape of it even with my so-so eyesight. If anyone is interested, just click on the link Spaceweather.com's Simple Satellite Tracker: International Space Station, spy satellites, Hubble Space Telescope and enter your location (Enter) and look for the times for the "ISS".

It went by about 10:17pm EST, and my kids got to see it this time. It wasn't as good as Thursday. On Thursday it did a path right above me.
We're going to try it again at 11:50pm.

Thanks for that link. The last time I saw a satellite fly across the sky was in the mid-60's when into astronomy as a kid. Would lay on a lounge chair in the Maryland backyard watching the sky and saw Echo.

Have to take a look tonight

My wife and I watched it fly by last night. Very cool.

 

[tallhair]

OK we saw it. It was moving really fast and looked like a bright light.

Now time for bed

I think I got a pic of it on my phone. You guys want to see it?

I get an email for every day it is visible from my position It tells me what time to look, duration of the event, how many degrees above the horizon to initially look for it, the arc overhead, and where it'll disappear. It's been dead-nuts accurate every time!
