      Possibly a conspiracy

      All human eyeballs mk5 and above have been fitted with a white flash of light every 55 minutes at night When looking up above 87deg and S.E.

        But the space station don't flash Jack. It moves agross the sky with the speed of a Scotsman reaching for his wallet ! :heehee: Cheers, Tony.

          We have seen it too Scotkat on many occassions when we are on our evening walks and you can't mistake it as it is a small white light that moves across the sky and has no other lights flashing{not like the airplanes that come over}and we find we can watch it for quiet some time before it eventually fades out on it's transit across the skies:)

              Here is another Link and if you put in your country{where it says sighting opportunities} and then find possibly the location as to where you live and click on it a list comes up of the dates and times you can see ISS coming over and where you should be looking in the night sky :)
