space station visible tonight ~9:16

From KATC in Lafayette
Acadiana observers will be able to see the International Space Station go by tonight between 9:16 and 9:19 PM CDT. Look for it coming from low in the northwestern sky through a position between the Big Dipper and the North Star. When under the Big Dipper it will be about midway between the horizon and the point overhead. It will look like a bright, clearly moving star, about as bright or brighter than Jupiter (the brightest star-like object well up in the west tonight).

It should look great in BR where there's no lights.

It disappeared right under the cup of the Big Dipper.

Yeah, it was crazy to watch it disappear. Like it put on an invisibility cloak.

Not as fast as I thought it might be. How fast was it supposed to moving?

Way brighter than I expected, but it faded halfway through transit across the sky.

Sure did. I haven't seen it do that before.
