How to spot it

Look for a steady, bright point of light gliding across the sky: no blinking, no colors.
It appears in the first direction and fades or sets toward the second; the higher the max height, the brighter it gets.
Passes only happen in the hours after sunset or before sunrise, when your sky is dark but the satellite is still in sunlight.
Predictions can shift by a minute or two; get outside a few minutes early.
