Weekend Sky Show

Written by The Night Sky Guy on July 2, 2010 – 4:01 pm -

Haven’t seen the space station yet? What are you waiting for! There has been no better time to catch sight of the 400 tonne orbiting laboratory fly above your backyard. You can see the International space station multiple times on any clear night the next few evenings. For more details check out my National Geographic article on spotting the station.

Check out my pictures I took of the ISS as it flew over my Montreal suburb home yesterday,  July 1st.

Space Station appears bright despite the blinding street lights in front of my suburban home. Making it even more interesting is the fact that this is looking towards downtown montreal - the ISS still is easy to spot. Credit: Andrew Fazekas, Canon 450D, 400 ASA, 20s.
