    Default Neat to Watch

    This is the space station going by. I have watched it many times. Kinda neat to see something that was'nt possible 40 years ago. This is for my location. Go online and search Space Station sightings for your area. What is the sky gonna look like in the next 40 years ?

    I saw it for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I have never heard about it being visible, but you can see it with the naked eye. You can see the outriggers and the shape of it. Wish I had my binoculars when we saw it, but you could see it without them pretty good. Our siting was around 8:40 pm and it was visible for about 4 minutes as it streaked across the sky.
    Here is the link to find out when it will be visible in your area. You can have an email alert sent to you when it is in your area.

    Thanks for the information. But my grandkids won't be up for that. Maybe in the evening time.
