second try with this subject
Greetings from n2oeq, long island new york
Last night was ideal for viewing the ISS after sunset in the southeast
sky. Pass times are ideal now for the viewing of the ISS in the lower 48.
I havent seen the ISS for a number of years. Now, with the extra solar
panels and trusses, it is much brighter than before. It was brighter
than a planet or star or airplane.
Check your home or online tracking program for visible passes around the
states. Truly impressive sight.

Generally , passes from about an hour to hour and a half after sunset
are best for viewing.
