Satellite Tracker & Starlink Train Tonight
Thousands of satellites cross the sky every night — most too faint to notice, but a handful are bright enough to catch the eye. The Space Station, the freshly-launched Starlink “trains,” China's Tiangong station and the Hubble telescope can all be spotted with no equipment if you know when to look. Here's what's passing over you.
What's passing over you tonight?
We'll find the next visible passes of the ISS, the latest Starlink train and other bright satellites over your exact spot — when to look, which way, and how high. Everything is computed in your browser; your location never leaves the device.
What can you see in your sky tonight?
We can work out the next passes of the Space Station, a fresh Starlink "train" and other bright satellites over your exact spot. Your location is used only in your browser to do the maths and is never sent anywhere.
That “string of lights” — the Starlink train
The most-asked “what was that?” of the moment: a tidy row of evenly-spaced lights drifting silently across the sky. It's a batch of newly-launched Starlink satellites, still bunched together before they climb to their working orbits and spread out — visible as a “train” for a few weeks after each launch, best in the hour after dusk.
