You may know already but the IIS is going to be visible (well sort of) for the next few days over the UK, you will be able to see it with the naked eye as a Bright light passing over. If you have a good telescope it will be even better


you can check it out on a few site to find out when it will be over your area

http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/realdata/si ... ed+Kingdom

http://spaceweather.com/flybys/country.php

or this one is quite good to find out where it is right now

http://iss.astroviewer.net/

you may need to set your location on them


and yes I was out having a look at it ...might even dig the old binoculars out
