I was able to watch the ISS in a very clear sky, from 22:50 to 22:56 in Erie, PA. The space station was clearly visible at a max altitude of 53º at 22:53:19, magnitude -2.9. This was my first sighting of the ISS and it was a great experience.  I had to stay up a bit past my normal bedtime, but getting to stand outside and see a beautiful star-lit sky with the ISS passing through was definitely worth it.  I appreciate Max and 99 reaching out to me and organizing it!  

Max and 99 viewed the ISS from 21:46 to 21:52 in Edmond, OK with a mostly clear sky, and with a max altitude of 87º at 21:49:22, magnitude -3.8.

Unfortunately, YoSam, in Warrenton, MO was clouded out.

The distance the ISS traveled from Edmond, OK to Warrenton, MO was 464 miles (1 minute 35 seconds flight time). The distance traveled from Warrenton, MO to Erie, PA was 693 miles (2 minutes 22 seconds). The total distance traveled from Site 1 to Site 3 was 1157 miles (3 minutes 57 seconds).
