Heavens-Above Home Page

the Heavens Above website. By inputting your location, this site will calculate when you can see various objects in the sky. We like the way it tracks ISS on the screen. There is a lot of data here, but in regards to satellites, the site breaks down what you can see, based on magnitude. If you are in a dark location, you might be able to see the dimmest objects (4.5), but if you are outside of a large city, you might only try and see the brighter objects (3.5).
