Two Space Station Passes this Evening 1st at 9:05 to 9:10 There will be a bright pass of the space station this evening. Start watching out of the SSW about 9:05, it peaks in the SE,elevation 36 degrees (variable with your location), and fades out in the ENE about 9:10; a full pass in sunlight at its 370 km altitude above Earth. You can catch its next pass about 1.5 hr later, coming out of the West a little after 10:40, at about 10:42:43 at an elevation of 36 degrees above the NNW, it hits Earth's shadow and abruptly disappears because it no longer is in any sunlight that it can reflect your way. In the time between each pass it makes one orbit around Earth. Sherman
