Ready to See More Satellites?

So you liked seeing the International Space Station the other day?  Want another chance to get a good view of it?  The next visible pass will be on Tuesday, March 22nd at 6:18am.   Look up in the SouthEast sky (135 degrees on your azimuth tool) and 21 degrees in elevation.  The International Space Station will be moving across the sky, right to left.
An EVEN BETTER VIEW will be on Friday, March 25th at 5:58am.  Look up in the Northwest sky (315 degrees on your azimuth tool) and 65 degrees in elevation.  It will be moving across the sky from right to left.

Remember to be out a few minutes early !!
