It'll be much dimmer the second time, in fact, it might not be visable at all because the sun will be further below the horizon.

Over Lewes?

Good god, I hope someone informed the district council. This could have a terrible impact on house prices. Think of the noise/pollution/pond.

"Dear Hazel,


I trust you are aware of the potential noise & air pollution the ISS will generate over the Falmer pond, even though 60,000+ people want it there it will undoubtedly scare my cats. I must therefore Appeal your decision in the High Court with the funds generated from our weekly raffle in the village hall.

Yours,
Mrs A Grumpy, Falmer Village

International Space Station that is, another perfect view from Lewes. For those that missed it it will be over again 11.39 tonight but only for a minute or so.

I presume i saw it over the skys of Burgess Hill about 10 minutes ago. I'm assuming it's the really brighto light that practically shoots across the night sky then disappears?

It is due over again at 11.30. It does look like a bright star but moving very quickly. It is easily distinguishable from planes. Look towards the west and it travels south east. Takes two or three mins. It is about 80 degs of elevation.
