The ISS reached a high altitude of 83º degrees at 22:16:17 CDT with an expected magnitude of -3.9 at our Site 1 in Edmond, OK. The viewing location was near the intersection of I-35 and Covell Road, by the Fire Training Center. We viewed the ISS only briefly from approximately 22:16:15 until 22:16:45 due to clouds.
The ISS appeared very briefly through cloudy skies when near its maximum altitude. No stars were visible but the moon could be discerned behind the clouds to the south.
At Site 2 in Ottawa, Ontario at 23:21:25 elyob observed the ISS reach a maximum altitude of 72º. The distance from Edmond to Ottawa was 1,504 miles (5.13333 min x 293 mi/min).
