This tracks most known satellites and other man made objects in space TO INCLUDE THE SPACE SHUTTLE AND ISS!

Tonight was totally awesome - it passed overhead at 1841 local time - it was -1.6 magnitude meaning it was brighter than any of the visible stars. A totally incredible experience. Me and the kids went bonkers.

If you haven't done so already, check the 5 day tracker for the ISS to see if it's scheduled to pass overhead (it orbits every 90 minutes or so). It's a really trippy thing to see.
