ISS Pass Times — Sydney
When can you next see the International Space Station from Sydney? Below is Sydney's next genuinely visiblepass — computed from the Station's current orbit — with tonight's dark-sky window and a live finder that uses your exact spot for pinpoint times.
The Station next sails over Sydney in 5 nights — a low but visible pass, rising in the SSW and setting in the E. 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 Sydney 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.
Sun times computed for Sydney (-33.9°, 151.2°) · local time.
Over Sydney tonight, the sky is dark enough to spot a pass roughly from 6:12 PM until 6:57 AM — but the Station also has to be sunlit, so the best chances are in the hour or two after dusk and before dawn.
