Frequently Asked Questions

Can you see the ISS through clouds?

No, the ISS is not visible through thick clouds. If cloud cover is low, you may still catch it through breaks.

How much cloud cover is too much?

Above ~80% cloud cover, viewing is usually difficult. Best results are typically with 0-20% cloud cover.

How accurate is the forecast?

Pass timing is highly accurate. Weather can shift quickly, so re-check cloud cover close to the pass.

What does visible pass mean?

A visible pass means the ISS is sunlit while your sky is dark enough to see it.

ISS fact of the day

The ISS is a partnership between five space agencies: NASA, Roscosmos, JAXA, ESA, and CSA.
