Thank you, Jim!! I enjoy watching this and other terrestrial events. I went
to school for Astronomy but had to change my major cause I did not think I
would make a living at watching the stars. HAHAHA

If you are a fan of looking up at the right time to see sunlight reflecting
off of the International Space Station as it moves across the sky, then
tomorrow, Wednesday Nov 29, around 5:35 pm is an excellent opportunity for
us in Southern NJ to enjoy this sight! (clouds permitting)

Start by facing South-West. Around 5:35 pm, you should be able to see a
bright dot rising from the South-West, passing near bright star Altair on
its way to becoming nearly straight overhead at 5:36 pm, to continuing on
this arc across the sky until it sets in the Earth's shadow in the
North-East by 5:38 pm.

Here's hoping for clear skies! Enjoy!
Jim
