ISS
If we see any night sky over the next few nights, you may wish to keep an eye open for the International Space Station, some good passes at the moment.London 2008/05/23 03:54 pm Sunrise/set: 04:57 am / 08:58 pmPredicted passes for: ISS daylight-saving time enabled Local Duration Date Time (min) Approach Max. elevation Departure------------------------------------------------------------------------2008/05/23 10:21 pm 5 15° above SW 42° above SSE 12° above E 2008/05/23 11:56 pm 5 17° above W 81° above ENE 11° above E 2008/05/24 01:32 am 1 19° above W 45° above W 45° above W 2008/05/24 10:43 pm 6 12° above WSW 72° above SSE 11° above E 2008/05/25 12:19 am 3 18° above W 87° above WNW 32° above E 2008/05/25 01:53 am <1 12° above W 12° above W 12° above W 2008/05/25 09:36 pm <1 13° above E 13° above E 11° above E 2008/05/25 11:06 pm 5 18° above W 84° above WNW 10° above E 2008/05/26 12:40 am 3 10° above W 57° above WSW 57° above WSW2008/05/26 09:53 pm 5 15° above WSW 70° above S 10° above E The table shows visible nighttime passes of the selected spacecraft over your chosen location during the next 5 days, if any. Local Time is the instant the satellite first becomes visible and is listed for your time zone. Duration indicates the length of each sighting in minutes. Max. elevation is how high the satellite will get above your horizon (90° is overhead). To see the spacecraft, at a given Time look in the direction indicated by Approach. You should see a slowly moving "star" (weather permitting). The Departure entries indicate where the spacecraft will be when it vanishes from sight. Sometimes an appearance or disappearance occurs well up in the sky when the satellite emerges into sunlight or slips into Earth's shadow, respectively.
