THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION, now carrying the six crew members of Expedition 44, makes nightly appearances in the North Olympic Peninsula sky through much of this month.
There is one flyover tonight (Saturday) at (10:32 p.m.) and three on Sunday (12:06 a.m., 9:39 p.m. and 11:13 p.m.).
The ISS is easy to see with the naked eye — it is the third-brightest object in the sky and looks like a fast-moving plane — but it’s dozens of times higher than any airplane and travels thousands of miles an hour faster.
For exact times and locations in our sky, visit the ISS section of the NASA website, http://spotthestation.nasa.gov/.
You can also sign up there for email alerts on local ISS fly-bys.
