See the International Space Station over North Texas tonight

UPDATE:  Hope you had a chance to see it tonight.  Next decent viewing opportunity will be Thursday, June 27, at 910pm.  This time look to western sky and follow it to the southeast horizon.  Won't be as high above though.  It will only be 32 degrees above the horizon so it will be tracking lower in the sky than Tuesday's pass over.  This time it will only be visible for 4 minutes.

The International Space Station orbit about 230 miles above the Earth and travels nearly 5 miles per second!
