[AMSAT-BB] ISS Sighting

We’re at YogurtLand in Jurupa Valley, CA. It’s 5 minutes before a 8:21PM Pacific time phenomenal visible pass of the International Space Station: 78 degrees’ elevation …

And it’s my birthday.

It is cool enough outside so that families were seated at tables with their desserts. And I “hit” each table: “In five minutes, step over and watch the INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION streak across the sky!!!”

And they did. My wife and I had more than 20 folks - ALL “first-timers” for viewing the ISS! It was about as splendid an end to a birthday celebration I could imagine. We stayed and discussed STEM and space with parents and students.

And so it goes …
