Thanks, Jo. As the story points out, the ISS is still growing, so it seems like it gets brighter each time there is a local viewing opportunity.

I'm still amazed there are at least 3000 active satellites in orbit!
It would be very cool to see the ISS with the naked eye! |

Cool. I'll keep a radio receiver on 145.800 and see if I can hear them. |
