Humour me on this one. Is there a place I can find that gives the ISS pass times APART FROM H-A during alternate times? The purpose is to see if perhaps, considering that the station is bigger with new attachments this week, maybe it is possible to image a pass whilst the Sun is up and so on. H-A just gives visible passes.

Calsky, although not as easy to read as H-A, does give you more infoand also covers stuff like Sun transits.
You can often see the pass before the first one that H-A lists - just remember it's 94.5 mins earlier.

Thanks for the link Albert. I'll be out side each night waiting for it to pass.

It would be GREAT to witness a solar or lunar pass but i'm not sure what to look for on the above link. It says Jpass is for satellites excluding the ISS or shuttle.
