Watching the International Space Station

Allison, Jessie and I just got back from sitting on Skyline Boulevard watching the International Space Station shoot across the sky. It was super bright and it's very cool to watch this "star" streak across the sky and know that there are people living and working on it.

If you want to check it out, go to
http://www.heavens-above.com/

and put in your latitude and longitude to see when the ISS will be visible from where you live.

To find your latitude and longitude, pull up your home address on google maps and then paste

javascript:void(prompt('',gApplication.getMap().getCenter()));

into the place you normally enter URL's.
