My buddy called me about a month ago around 10:00pm and asked if I was standing outside. He said the space station was about to fly right over us. I ran outside with my scope to try to get a glimpse. I was amazed when it flew by. I had no idea it would be that bright and move so quickly. I didn't even know you could see it with the naked eye. I'm sure I looked like a fool running around my backyard trying to relocate an 80 pound scope and stand(trees were in the way). I was not skilled or prepared enough to see it through the scope.

The whole point is that I had no idea how cool it would be.
