The International Space Station will be passing over Gasport a few times over the coming days.
It's a unique sight and much more visible than you'd imagine: the upcoming sightings will range from -1 to -2.7 magnitude. A -1 magnitude object is as bright as the brightest star. -2 magnitude objects are as bright as planets.
Here's where and when to look:
August 27th: 5:57 AM, SSW
Aug 29th: 5:18 AM, SSW
Aug 30th: 5:44 AM, WSW
Aug 31st: 4:39 AM, ESE
Sept 1st: 5:06 AM, WNW
These passovers last only two minutes at a time, so keep your eyes peeled.
