If anyone wants to go to the star party tonight, I'm going to go out for a while.

You can check it out here.

I saw the iridium flare from my front yard.

Ever since I found this site - Heavens-Above Home Page - I've seen all kinds of things from just standing in my front yard. Thats even with 2 streetlights in front of my house.

The space station is cool, but damn it moves fast. And the iridium flares are cool as well, I've seen three in the past 4 nights. I havent seen one in the day time but my eyes are so sensitive to bright lights thats it painful for me to look up into the sky during the daytime for more than a couple of seconds... which is why on my bike I wear sunglasses under my tinted visor.

I saw a rocket body 2 nights ago while I was chilling out in my jacuzzi looking at the sky.

Once you know where to look and what time to look, its really cool when you start seeing stuff floating above you :)

Nice find Will. I think I saw the space station before, but I'm not entirely sure. It shot across the sky in about a minute or so.
