Watching ISS for the first time

ISS Amateur Radio

I had gone out side for a breath of fresh air, at around 7pm, tonight.. Always look at the stars if the sky is clear. A small blip of white caught my eye, out of the West. As it got closer, I noticed there were no running lights, so ran in and got the 10x50's for a closer look. By now, it had literally passed over the top of the house. With the brightness of the full moon, and by pining the glasses to the porch railing, I could see the whole thing.. wings and all!! What an awsome sight - Hope I get a chance to see it again.
