Magnitude 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.

No visible pass of the International Space Station tonight. Next chance: Sunday, Oct 11 at 6:34 am, looking south-southeast. The space station is far brighter than Starlink satellites, so it is often the easier thing to spot.

Tiangong, China's space station

10 visible passes in 8 nights

Yes · 5:54 am, look west-northwest. Tiangong orbits about 386 km up, tilted 41.5° to the equator. It looks like a bright, steady star gliding across the sky, fainter than the ISS but easy to see without a telescope.

Seeing Starlink from Atlantic City

Atlantic City is at 39.4°N. Tonight the sky is dark enough from 6:58 pm until 6:33 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 none of the recently launched satellites passes over in darkness.

Satellites from launch 2026-225 (28 September 2026) are also low and bright, but they do not pass over Atlantic City 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.
