My experience:
I have loved to look up at the sky at night, but I have never seen the Mir or ISS passover. I was very impressed with how fast it moved and how bright it was! Last night it was one of the brightest objects in the sky. It was also interesting to watch it disappear as it passed into the shadow of the Earth.

Unfortunately Site #1 was unable to see the passover as it had overcast weather conditions.
