Space Station over uk 10 11 pm

[wendilla]

Don't think we will get a view like we had last night but sky may clear. Trying to make the most of it as it will change course next week. There is another sighting at 11 47 pm but that is only for 1 minute but the earlier sighing is 4 minutes.

So which direction should I look, and which way is it travelling - left to right, up or down

I am no expert in telling people where to look but it always comes in the same direction from usa over the atlantic then Ireland. Itis one big bright light gliding across the sky .You don't need binoculars and it does not blink.

The sky is really clear here in Kent at the moment, so if I am still awake at 10 I will put on my woollie and nip outside. Last night was good (I saw the early run).

[wendilla]

Hi Mr Veritas yes I love it .Been watching it off and on for over 2 years and just found it by someone mentioning it on here.Half the street where I live look out for it At least 6 of us out .It has grown much bigger in size from when I first saw it. and I have seen the double fly bye once last year.I am so gutted as my son and Grandson went to Florida 2 years ago and saw all that part where the Shuttles take off and I have a picture of him with his hand inside a glass compartment near Moon rock, How jealous am I .

[Mr Veritas]

Sorry wendilla,
My comment was really as a nod at the link I left you,not to knock your excellent service!

[dothawkes31]

I love it, it makes me feel I am watching the future, it's am amazing thing, hope it's clear tonight but it's not looking good!

[boxtops]

It says they're over Eastern Europe at the moment, they must have whizzed by a few minutes ago, presumably it's too hard to see them unless it's really dark?

[dothawkes31]

no boxtops the other night it was still only ust past dusk but they were so easy to spot!

[wendilla]

Hi Mr Veritas I know you werent knocking it lol lol. Like the picture though.

[boxtops]

Thanks dot, I must look when I see them coming! That tracker is really good wendilla, I have it on my favourites now.

[askyourgran]

It's overcast tonight no cloud breaks, but I'll look out at 10.11 to see if it can be seen

[wendilla]

Yes Boxtops with the tracker you dont need to go out till the red circle hits the coast of uk

[dothawkes31]

I've just been reading up on the various missions they are working on whilst in orbit, some of them are really fascinating, it's very interesting and so much more to it than just a light in the sky

[wendilla]

Dot I have some marvellous pictures of it sent to me from the us.And yes it is very interesting reading what goes on up there.

[wendilla]

I shall look your comments tomorrow to see if you saw it. I have to look in on a neighbour after I watch for it as her daughter has gone out.

[tamborine]

10mins....any chance of a photo to see what we're looking at ?

[smurfchops]

It just went over Surbiton ! Brilliant

[4getmenot]

I looked but couldnt see anything but was a loud noise, does it make a noise?
