Space Shuttle and International Space Station Sightings from Peoria, IL

These cool nights give us the opportunity to see the Space Station with the naked eye. It is free and kind of fun. So bundle up and go outside and see the space station hurtle over Central Illinois.

Sunday's sighting will be at 6:00 a.m. It will appear 11 degrees above SSW and reach an elevation of 35 degrees and leave your view 34 degrees above SE. It will be in sight for 3 minutes.

Speaking of degrees it may frost in the morning so bundleup.


You can go to the NASA website and get information on sightings on a daily basis. Their website is http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/realdata/sightings/cities/view.cgi?country=United_States&region=Illinois&city=Peoria

Good luck in seeing the Space station.
