The International Space Station’s next passes over Botafogo, worked out from its latest orbital elements when this page loads, in local time. At 23° S, it can pass straight overhead.
Next passes · worked out at
The station crosses the sky over Botafogo 9 times in the next three days, but each time in daylight or in Earth’s shadow, so none of them can be seen.
The next visible pass is expected on Monday, October 26 at 20:24, up to 50°; that far ahead the time can shift by minutes.
Times are Botafogo time (GMT-3). Predicted from the orbital elements of Oct 20, 05:01 UTC. A pass needs a clear sky, and the times move when the station boosts its orbit.
Good to know
- A pass can be seen when the station is still in sunlight while the sky over Botafogo is dark, in the hours after sunset or before dawn. It looks like a bright, steady star crossing the sky in a few minutes.
- The times are predicted from the latest published orbital elements, not observed, and cloud isn’t taken into account.
- Passes are counted from 10° above the horizon, where buildings and haze stop hiding them.
