At site 3 the ISS became visible in the NW sky at 10 degrees on 05:46:07 am EDT. The sky was clear with a nearly full moon that was 93% Waning Gibbous and very near the ISS track. At 05:49:35 am EDT the ISS reached maximum altitude at 49 degrees. It remained visible to about 9 degrees at 05:53:50 am EDT where it disappeared in the SE sky. Due to the -3.7 magnitude it remained clearly visible even while passing near the moon.
The distance from Trail to Edmond was 1,558 miles (5.3167 min. x 293 mi./min.), the distance from Edmond to Lehigh Acres was 1,240 miles (4.2333 min. x 293 mi./min.) and the total distance covered was 2,798 miles (9.55 min. x 293 mi./min.) from Trail to Lehigh Acres.
