Saw it last night. Perfect end to an early night, taking picks of the New Moon & Venus.

Perhaps I sow it couple of days ago but it was a bit later than 9pm..

ISS, and other satellites, are visible pretty much anytime for three or four hours either side of sunset or sunrise. The pass just depends on the orbit of the object in question. As long as the satellite in question is not in Earth's shadow, while your location is, it will be visible from the ground.

I just seen a bright object moving slowly across the sky, it then suddenly disappeared. Was it the ISS?

I've seen satellites moving, but this was brighter.
