ISS Doesn't Disappoint

The International Space Station (ISS) streaked brilliantly across central Virginia earlier this evening, and was visible for more than 5 minutes. It was considerably brighter than last night, probably due to a better reflective angle from the sun and slightly clearer skies. I fielded a number of viewer calls and e-mails from viewers that were able to catch the ISS as well. If you missed it tonight, there will be another good opportunity to see it Wednesday night. We'll have the details here on the blog and on CBS 6. Have a great night!
