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 6:31 am, looking south. The space station is far brighter than Starlink satellites, so it is often the easier thing to spot.

Tiangong, China's space station

6 visible passes in 8 nights

No visible pass of Tiangong over Deltona tonight. Next: Friday, Oct 9 at 6:31 am. It orbits about 386 km up, tilted 41.5° to the equator, and looks like a bright, steady star gliding across the sky.

Local time. Brightness is a rough estimate (±1 magnitude; lower is brighter). How we compute this.

Seeing Starlink from Deltona

Deltona is at 28.9°N. Tonight the sky is dark enough from 7:28 pm until 6:58 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 17 visible passes (17 in the evening, 0 before dawn); 13 of them should be easy to spot (estimated magnitude 4 or brighter).

The best one is on Tuesday, Oct 13 at 7:21 pm: it appears in the west-southwest, climbs to 79° in the south-southwest and fades in the east at about magnitude 2.

The passes come from these launches:

Satellites from launch 2026-219 (20 September 2026) are also low and bright, but they do not pass over Deltona while it is dark and they are sunlit in this period.
