ISS Flyby for Tuesday May 12th.

12 May, 2009 (09:35) | ALERTS, Observing | By: tramakers

Tonight we finally will have another nice flyby of the ISS for the Atlanta area. For my location (Social Circle), the ISS will become visible (mag. 0.4) at the horizon at 21:09 in the NNE and will cross over and set at 21:18 in the WSW. The culmination will be azimuth 320degrees at an height of 37 degrees at 21:13 with a brightness of mag. -2.2. (distance 554km)

For those closer to Atlanta, the ISS overpass should be higher than for me. Let me know if you had a chance to see it.
