It has been orbiting for quite a while, heavens-above only recently put it on. I have been monitoring it on www.n2yo.com but will never reach a good visible pass. 1.7 is not easy to find a moving target unless you snag.

yeah i was hopeing to catch a look before it falls out of orbit but sounds like not worth the effort.

mozzie yeah clouds messed up my attempt at the iss the other morning. cant believe i got up at 0530 to strike out.
