Title: Just watch the ISS/Discovery fly over my house.
Post by: Ryan on March 21, 2009, 10:24:34 AM

I'm 34 years old but I felt like I was 10 again!!!  I was tracking it on the NASA website, and had set my alarm for 9:00 PM Pacific time.  Went outside with my 2 year old son and watch it just north of us (Seattle area) pass from daylight to dark.  Very cool.  My wife and her friend even ran outside to take a look.  Luck the weather cleared long enough to see it.

Just had to share.t ;D

In central Florida where I live, the ISS is only a bright little moving star. :(

(I knew it was the ISS because I have an ISS and HST tracker on my google desktop sidebar.)

When I checked the viewing availabilities for Central Florida the past few days it has said there weren't any??
