Space Cowboy Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I think I saw it at 19.55 coming from the west for about 30 secs then it disappeared as bright as Jupiter and moving like a plane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cathalferris Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I was looking through 15*70 binoculars mounted on tripod, with the tripod acting as a monopod. I could fairly easily see the structure of the ISS as it flew past. Once the sun set on it, it appears as a mag 7-8 star and I followed it nearly to the horizon. Good show.
