I was at the University of Massachusetts Amherst campus with my kid today for transfer student orientation. I played hooky from the family and friends tour when I discovered that we did not get to visit anything interesting like the steam plant, They were supposed to feed us, but I was busy cutting code. Somebody owes me lunch at the next Symposium.

Select a name from the list returned from above and use a Maidenhead grid square to specify the location. This will give you summary info on the next 10 passes for that location. www.amsat.org/track/api/v1/passes.php?location=II42&object=ISS< http://www.amsat.org/track/api/v1/passes.php?location=fn42&object=ISS%3E
