Yesteday I wrote to Alfouine because today was an ISS, but I didn't see good and the hour was 7:02 a.m. but he said that no problem.
In the point 1 it started to see the ISS from SW at about 7:02:32 (7:02 a.m.). It will travel from SW to the NE, and reach the highest point of 76° at 7:04:29. It will travel towards the SW to NE and you will lose sight of it about 7:07:50 just above the horizon (10º). Magnitude -3.8.
The point 2 was in Tours, France. The begining was at 7:03:15; Highest part of pass: 7:06:35 with high 63° and enter in the shadow. Magnitude -3.3. Fortunately, Alfouine saw it.
Unfortunately, The morning was foggy here and the bright was very "contaminated" and the moon was bright and it darkened it more.
It is seen in the photos near the moon and the dark sky that it does not capture.
Thanks for the partner Alfouine for other ISS.
The ISS took 2 minute and 6 seconds, covering around 1008 km.
