International Space Station Sighting April 20, 2011

Recorded at 8:32 - 8:36 EDT at Blairstown NJ. Check this site to see when the space station can be viewed in your area: spaceflight.nasa.gov The ISS was visible for about five minutes about 45 minutes after sunset. The only time it can be seen is within a few hours after sunset and a few hours before sunrise, otherwise it will be too deep in the earth's shadow because the sun is on the other side of the earth. It actually can be seen quite often, for example, may 5. june 30, july 1 space shuttle launch july 8, sts-135 landing july 21 soyuz russia russians
