The older I get, the more this stuff excites me to see.
International Space Station Just Flew Over
- Thread starter Jimmy Rustler
- Start date
Passed by me about 10 or 15 minutes ago. Didn't even know it was coming over. Went outside and saw it hauling ass across the sky. Was absolutely awesome.
I avoid most dangerous things except airplanes and the Middle East but if NASA called tonite, I would be there as soon as I could.
There us nothing I would rather do than to go into space tomorrow morning.

Even more awesome to think people were up their flying by us. I didn't know it was happening until someone shared it 5 minutes before it was supposed to happen. I'll go anywhere, but space would be a hell yes let's go right now place.

You're always looking to get probed.
Don't promise me a good time.

I've seen it a few times now. Once, it was during sunset and the light reflected off of it so brightly, it was like this brilliant flash. Cool stuff.
Not me, I want home planet advantage.

Put your state and town in, and it will tell you when you can be looking for the ISS over the next two weeks.

Obama phones, refundable EITCs and a host of other gummint programs could vie for that title, all tits on a boar hog. At least we have velcro from the space program. That's something.

Caught the ISS crossing paths with another satellite last night, in an X. Pretty sweet.
