no visible passesMagnitude is an estimate (lower = brighter; 3 is easy, 5 needs a dark sky). Predictions for satellites that are still raising their orbits can shift by a few minutes from one update to the next; check again before you go out. How we compute this.
Seeing Starlink from Prince George
Prince George is at 53.9°N. Tonight the sky is dark enough from 7:08 pm until 6:50 am. A Starlink satellite only shows when it is still in sunlight while you are in darkness, so the passes bunch up in the first hours after dusk and the last hours before dawn, not around midnight. Over the next 8 nights we found 9 visible passes (0 in the evening, 9 before dawn); 2 of them should be easy to spot (estimated magnitude 4 or brighter).
The best one is on Thursday, Oct 8 at 5:12 am: it appears in the northeast, climbs to 64° in the north and fades in the northeast at about magnitude 3.5.
The passes come from these launches:
- 2026-219, launched 20 September 2026 (27 satellites, now 341–366 km up): 9 passes here
Satellites from launch 2026-225 (28 September 2026) are also low and bright, but they do not pass over Prince George while it is dark and they are sunlit in this period.
No train is visible this week. A train is only a train for about the first 10 days after a launch; here is why some weeks have nothing.
