Brightest object in the sky

Get ready for a heavenly display tonight, brought to you by NASA, and a few others.

What a treat we are in for!  According to Jay Reynolds of CSU, the International Space Station (ISS) will put on a display.

Tonight, about 5:45 pm, the International Space Station will rise in the southwest. 

5:49 pm ISS will pass directly over us in northeastern Ohio.

While overhead, ISS will pass through constellation Cygnus and right next to Cassiopeia, following the Milky Way.  As it does, it will brighten even more, as the sun will be to our backs.

At 5:52pm ISS will then set in the northeastern sky.

The station will be the BRIGHTEST object on the sky!  (Magnitude -3.7 WOW!)

Enjoy this event, brought to you by Channel 3.  Betsy Kling and Hollie Strano are selling tickets for viewing.  (Just kidding...)
