Sight in the Sky Early in the AM

If you are an early bird... or even if you are not, you should be for tomorrow morning. A rare sight in the sky, if you look to the east just before dawn you'll catch the waning crescent moon and very close to the moon you'll catch the planet Venus, which will be shining brighter than most of the stars. And if you check outdoors at the right time, you'll be able to see the International Space Station pass across the sky as well. You can see when the ISS will pass across the sky in your area on this website. You just put in your zip code and the page will tell you when the ISS will pass across and where to look. It also says any other satellites that will be visible in the night sky, providing the skies are clear enough.
Enjoy the show!
