The International Space Station illuminated by a 3.6-Watt 532-nm green laser, recorded by ESA’s Optical Ground Station. The video was taken at 7 frames per second on Oct 8, 2014.
The ISS (International Space Station) is visible gliding silently over the GTA this week. The best passes at (mostly) convenient times are listed below. (Note: The more negative the Mag. number, the brighter. The larger the Alt. number, the higher up it is!) Some passes are high and bright! (Data adapted from www.Heavens-above.com. If you enter your location in their website, you will get a list of them for your location.) All the times are in Eastern Time.
