This is the International Space Station travelling over Crispiero in Italy tonight, where I happen to be, It travels at 27,724 kilometres or 17,227 miles per hour. The space station completes 15 orbits a day, which means the crew members on board the station experience a sunrise or sunset every 92 minutes.
You can track the ISS on a free app called ISS Spotter and if you have a lovely clear sky, as we do in Italy, you will see it clear as you like.
Who knew?
