Just watched it fly over, Amazing how bright it is and how quickly it moves across the sky. Thanks for posting the link Zack!

Watching the space station fly over is really cool. I watched space station over my home in Iowa.  Favorite past time at Oshkosh is laying on my back after Theatre in the woods under airplane and watching several satelites at  any given time fly over Oshkosh.

Nice site Zack. Another good one is Heavens above....google it for the exact site name. It has alot of star, planet, and satellite data based upon your location and time, and it even will sort by the brightest objects.

I've been trying to view it each night,but with the Monsoon season that we're having it's been cloudy each night! I'm hoping again that tonight will be the night to see it. I'm wondering how much bigger and brighter it will look now that it's larger with the Shuttle docked with it.

Absolutely a great show! It's especially  amazing when the shuttle is approaching or leaving the station. You can see the 2 bright spots traveling across the sky. I've been visiting this website for several years now --- definitely a must see!
