ISS and meteor just now was created by ei5fk
Cloudy but ISS shone through, anyone see the falling star streak perpendicular to the orbit of the ISS early in its pass, very bright even through overcast skies

21.44 to 21.48 Pass

I saw that too Charles, though from where I was the meteor was not as close to the ISS. It was a very bright pass at that time. I had friends and family over for the barbecue and the sky cleared in time (for the most part) for the pass, which we all saw - as well as a few meteors and some other satellites and 1 Iridium Flare (about 23 minutes after the ISS).

I won't be there unfortunately, Charles, but I might be down in CAC later in the year. I'll keep you posted!
