Hi and Welcome

The ISS is visible this evening rising from the WEST at 9:50pm, rising to a height of 42 degrees (quite high) it disappears approx 4 minutes later in SSE. It appears as the 3rd brightest star in the sky, it comes towards you faster than it goes away from you. It is VERY noticeable and everytime I see it coming towards me, my tummy churns, its AWESOME. Go to NASA's site and goto SPOTTHESTATION, from there you can enter your town and country and receive a daily email informing you when the ISS is visible in the UK. This information is from my email of today 16 April 2014. Good clear skies at present so good luck. Please let me know how you get along. I am new too, I have just said HELLO to everyone on the Welcome pages. I talked to my grandchildren (11 yr old grandaughter and 6yr old grandson) the other evening and talked them through vewing the ISS as it passed, they were AMAZED and loved it! It was good to share this moment with them. In case you miss this message, I will send you tomorrows ISS details also. Take a photo of it overhead on yor phone. I did !!! It's a start :-) Happy spotting! xx

THIS LINK SHOULD TAKE YOU STRAIGHT TO THE SPOT THE STATION PAGE AT NSA.
