If you like watching the ISS go overhead, you will like Iridium Flares too. Check out this website for info:
THanks. I was just about to post and ask about this. I used to observe the Iridium Flares about 10 years ago, but have long since lost the program I used for prediction, and actually had forgotten what they were called, or I would have googled it. But a couple nights ago I was watching a very dim sat go across the sky, and it flashed like an Iridium, although not quite so bright and it flashed more than once, so I don't think it was a real Iridium, but it made me want to try watching for them again. Thanks.
