Well, September 19 was a day chosen to see one ISS at around 9:40 p.m. One e-mail wroted to a new partner: pmaupin, who accepted.
I put one photo of before to become night with the clouds. Yesterday was cloudy but some parts permited see the sky. I put other photos: one in the cloudy night that we can't see anything and two with the satellite.
In A Valenzá, point 1 it started to see the ISS from SW at about 21:36:17 (9:36 p.m.). It will travel from SW to the NE, and reach the highest point of 57° at 21:41:42. It will travel towards the SW to NE and you will lose sight of it about 21:44:44 just above the horizon (49º). Magnitude -3.2 .
The point 2 was in Wimille, France. The begining was at 21:38:53; started to see at 21:40:59; Highest part of pass: 21:44:17 with high 57°; The end was at 21:44:44; -3.7 magnitude. The problem was that Wimille was under a big thunderstorm all night and pmaupin couldn't see anything.
Thanks for the partner pmaupin and we will tried again.
The ISS took 2 minutes and 36 seconds, covering around 1187 km.
