    Just thought I'd add that if you look tonight at certain times you will see the space station with Discovery following it. We've watched the space station go over around 7:30pm, the kids were well impressed. Go to
    https://www.heavens-above.com to find out where and when. Look for info on ISS.

    The last 2 nights have been really clear so it's easy to spot.

    The discovery following the ISS is tomorrow (sat) I thought it was tonight. It was still cool seeing the space station going over though.

    I couldn't see anything tonight as it was so cloudy. What time is it due over the UK tomorrow?
