Always missing the ISS evening flyovers? There’s one this morning at 6:52 this morning (Tuesday 10/19). Go out and watch it!
Sorry for the redundancy in the title, this morning. Can't edit headlines/titles. (Sigh).
Edit/Update: Don't go too far out of your way. 75% cloudy so may not be the best opportunity.
Get somewhere with a clear view of the sky, especially toward the south-southwest. At 6:52 AM, watch the horizon, facing SSW, and you'll see a what looks like a very bright star appear, climbing rapidly. It'll cross near the middle of the sky and disappear 7 minutes later, in the northeast sky.
Keep in mind that there are SEVEN humans on that thing. They're flying around planet earth at 17,130 MPH!
Two related resources: Spot The Station and See a Satellite. That one lets you get a simulation showing the sky in your area with simulations of what'll go by. Makes it very easy to know which way to be watching where you are!
Enjoy!
Edit: Typo.
