Favourable ISS pass for Brisbane 26 Apr

Hi All,

Just noticed on Heavens Above that there is a good ISS pass for those in Brisbane on Saturday 26th April. It passes almost through the zenith (max altitude 88 degrees at 6:00:37 pm), and at magnitude -2.4 it should be hard to miss. I'm yet to see the ISS so I'm looking forward to this pass!

Cheers,
Stephen

We have a nice one in Sydney for tomorrow night, but the weather will ruin it no doubt.

I haven't seen a good one since December here, due to weather.

I'd love to be out for this one, but I'm gonna be partying in the city for a mates birthday that night. But, there appears to be a good one on May 19th as well.

I have my fingers crossed for clear skies in my little spot! I'll have at least one eye constantly fixed on the sky!!!
