Has anyone managed to see the ISS? I haven't been star-gazing long so I haven't had much of a chance to see it - night time always seems to be cloudy here!

If anyone has seen it I would be very interested in knowing any tips you might have for seeing it.

I haven't seen it, but most people who have seen it have seen it by luck rather than looking for it. I'm sure you could find orbital path for it somewhere, I'll have a look and get back to you.

Good idea

I had a look on the ISS website and they have a very useful applet to see where/when the ISS will be visible at
http://spaceflight1.nasa.gov/realdata/si...aSSOP.html

According to the applet the next sighting over London will be: Mar 19 at about 5am.

On a side note, what are your opinions of the ISS? Do you think it has been a success?
