International Space Station

I saw the space station, on a clear night out at Denbury. I popped out for a cigarette, and there was this light whizzing across the sky. I checked it wasn't flashing or making a noise like a plane, then ducked inside to tell the others. Unfortunately only Wendy saw it before it was eclipsed by the earth's shadow, briefly turning red before disappearing. But Yay! I saw it. *applies for astronaut job

Mallers, Ned & I watched it make several passes at Cropredy, as we sat outside and set the world to rights.

You can put in your city to find when it's going to be overhead again.
