The International Space Station is expected to offer 2 great naked eye viewing opportunities as it passes over central Pennsylvania this week.

The ISS is expected to appear in our sky at 8:57 p.m. Saturday, April 3, about the width of a fist at the end of an outstretched arms (10 degrees) above the west-northwestern horizon. Over the next 5 minutes it will move toward the south, rising to a maximum height of 67 degrees before disappearing at 34 degrees above south-southeast.

It will appear again at 8:09 p.m. Sunday, April 4, about 10 degrees above the northwest horizon, moving to east-southeast and rising to 70 degrees over 7 minutes and then disappearing at 11 degrees above east-southeast.

According to NASA, “the space station looks like an airplane or a very bright star moving across the sky, except it doesn’t have flashing lights or change direction. It will also be moving considerably faster than a typical airplane (airplanes generally fly at about 600 miles per hour; the space station flies at 17,500 miles per hour).”
