Fun for the whole family!

6. Thanks for this.

And I just realized that a light in the night sky I saw a few days ago might possibly have been the ISS.

12. How remarkable.

I have a son who's an astronomer. I have a sort of running joke, that I'll give you his cell phone number, and if you walk outside at night and see something you don't understand, just dial his number and say, "I'm a friend of your mother", ask him your question, and you'll learn a lot. In reality, even if I gave his number out freely, he'd probably not answer calls if he didn't recognize the number.

But every single time I speak with him I learn something new. OMG! What an amazing universe we live in.

Some years ago he looked up iridium satellites, and we'd go outside and catch them at night.

Now it's the ISS.

(Oh, my son is now entering a PhD program at George Mason University in Fairfax VA, and his research will be in exoplanets. How cool is that?)

11. Thanks so much for this!!

We watched it fly over at 9:39CST. It was pretty amazing to see and we were positioned ideally as we just walked out the back porch and onto the patio and it arched right to left across our sky from W to NE.
