Space Station tonight.

Lakesrider · 04-08-2014, 08:48 AM

If it clears up in time tonight the station will be visible for 6 minutes. one of the longest times in a while. Right at about the time it gets dark now....Not quite as high up this time at only 55 degrees.

Tue Apr 8, 7:53 PM 6 min 55° 10 above SW 10 above ENE

I forgot to mention that Mars is going to be really bright. 10x brighter than the brightest star tonight. I sure hope it clears up though. Not looking good so far.
