The ISS came over at 1057 pm BST last night. I remember many years ago seeing it going over being followed by the Space shuttle as it was not far off docking. For those interested in seeing the ISS this gives times. Just follow the instructions to put in your location.

Would not have been able to see it last night had the launch gone to plan as there was high cloud and would not have seen it.

According to
www.flightclub.io , it looks like the UK will have a pretty good chance at seeing the launch on Saturday. Looks like the path goes almost directly over Exeter. The weather Saturday looks to be a non-factor, so hope for no technical issues and don't forget to breath during the launch.

Next launch attempt at 1522 Saturday May 30th
50/50 Chance of favorable weather.
Having lived in Florida for 40 years, 50/50 is the only forecast I have faith in.

You discussed here that we had a chance to see something interesting. What if I told you that the UK could return to space. So far in small steps, but still. We have a Skyrora project. Which send rockets with small and microsatellites into orbit. Why don't we talk about it? And not only. Let's support our own. At least we will follow the news and discuss them)
