A final chance to see the iss flyby at another sociable clear veiw time tonight. 21:02 hrs lasting for 5 minutes.

It will be another bright pass. Directly from the west, where it will pass the rosey coloured star...Mars, you can't miss it as its so bright at this time. It will head south east.

Tonight it may be possible to see 2 lights moving across the same trajectory as space x is due to dock with the iss on Sunday afternoon. I say it may very loosely though.

I have in the passed seen the iss along with the space shuttle Colombia. Im not sure how visible space x is though.
