Humans around the planet have a rare opportunity to view the International Space Station (ISS) from right here on Terra-Firma.... and yes, it is STILL in space. Orbital coincidences have provided us with the chance to see the ISS orbiting the earth via it's reflection of the sun's rays. To the naked eye, the ISS will be visible as a VERY bright object in the sky, diminishing even the moon's luminescence. The link below provides the optimal viewing times and locations for the area of Whitewater, with many other selectable locations available at the Nasa website. Take time to notice the little things.... they often turn out to be the things you remember the most.
