CalSky predicts a very nice ISS pass for this evening (Friday). It happens only about 30 minutes after sunset in civil twilight so (hopefully) we'll see a bright dot of light moving across a blue sky. Details: Appears 20h25m46s 2.7mag az:305.4° NW horizon Culmination 20h30m56s -4.1mag az:217.9° SW h:80.2° Disappears 20h34m30s -1.7mag az:130.7° SE h:7.2° Distance: 385.0km Height above Earth: 381.0km Elevation of Sun: -7° The above are data for my place here at Stansbury but will be very close for most folks on Utah-Astronomy (sorry Rob, not you <g>). patrick p.s. SLAS is at the Harmons in Midvale this evening. And SPOC tomorrow. Y'all come!
