Moon brighter than normal tonight, a blue moon ?

What does the space station look like flying in the sky ?

I saw something flying in the sky brighter than a airplane and it didn't have blinking lights.

The Cable Crossing Fire is making it difficult to see anything tonight. It’s still early though.

The last flyby at 9:15 Central was pretty good, here in North Texas. I was able to capture it on my iPhone.

Check out the website iss.astroviewer.net. The next several days have great viewing opportunities. It came in handy when we were in Charleston two weeks ago. It was awesome standing on the beach watching it pass by.

There'a a five minute flyby at 10:51 tonight Central Time, traveling west to northeast.

I'm the only one in my family that still gets a charge out of seeing it. It's their loss.
