Space Shuttle and ISS over Sheffield

[AnnaGrant 10]

Where do we need to look tonight- Wednesday- in relation to the moon?

 

I've noted down that the times are 6.36pm for the shuttle and 6.41 for the ISS.

 

Of course this assumes that the weather will be obliging, and that there won't be cloud cover. Here's hoping!

Says on the news that a shuttle has landed is this the shuttle we were meant to be looking at in an hour?

The space station.

I do believe the ISS has just passed over Sheffield 2 minutes ago. Either that or ET has come back to see Elliot.

 

I've seen the ISS a few times though. Pretty sure that is what i just watched pass over while walking the dog

Around 9.30pm i received a phone call from a mate saying the international space station was due over sheffield at 9.34 this info came from a fellow on twitter went outside and looked up here in Beighton and sure enough something big and bright was going over dint look like an aeroplane

I wonder if it was the station anybody know if it was due over here anybody see it.

You can also see it again at 23.10 though it's dimmer than the earlier pass over.

I'd like to see this too and it's a really clear sky tonight ... which direction should I look in? (apart from the blatantly obvious)
