The Station next sails over New York tonight — a brilliant, near-overhead pass, rising in the NW and setting in the SE. Look for a steady, bright point of light gliding silently across the sky — no flashing, no sound. You'll need a reasonably clear sky.

Computed for New York from the current NORAD orbital elements (CelesTrak) · elements from Jul 24, 2026. A visible pass needs the sky dark below and the Station still catching sunlight above — both are accounted for here.
