in which direction

[samuelcat]

I asked for that didnt I. lol. So let me try again. If I wanted to see this event tonight and apart from looking UP, in which direction should I be looking. N E S W.

[wendilla]

direction on list says ESE but it always comes the same direction every time across the atlantic over ireland then uk. Yes OMNIBUSMAN that would have been a sight worth seeing in realitily for the shuttle. I have seen in take off and land live on nasa tv

[wendilla]

A friend of mine was there when the one that was delayed a few mouths ago because of the weather If it had not been delayed he would have seen it as he had to fly back next day.

Where when and if it will be visible as well as appearance (brightness, path, height above horison) vary with location and conditions, (clouds, light pollution, etc).

If you are not able to obtain a table using the map above, then you will need to specify the location from which you would be watching to obtain accurate predictions. :o|
