Hello from your sidewalk astronomers! ISS/Dragon Pass tonight at 10 p.m. + next few nights

Hello everyone! Tonight is as good a time as any to reconnect, because tonight (from the LA/Southern CA area) at 10:00 p.m. we can see an ISS pass withSpaceX's Crew Dragon Demo docked to ISS high overhead!  Since the two spacecraft are docked you will only see one object, of course. You can also see passes over the next several nights. Remember, you don't have to go anywhere to see the ISS, just step outside and look in the directions indicated. A compass phone app comes in handy, if you are unsure of directions. You cant miss the moon on all these nights, too. Mon Jun 1:  9:58 PM - 10:02 PM,  Max Height: 70°, Appears: 10° above NW at 9:58, Disappears: 71° above N 10:02 PM. Look for the big dipper in the northern sky, the ISS will  pass from the dipper bowl to handle. Tue June 2: 9:11 PM - 9:16 PM.

Find it here https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/video/ and /or via your JPL video feed from Youtube. Most of our friendly astronomers have been taking their telescopes out to their bright back yards (or nearby). Mojo and I have been doing this too. Here are some images he's taken with a couple of our telescopes.  Enjoy Mojo's writeups (the blogs before and after this one are fun to read too) http://mojo.whiteoaks.com/2020/05/22/astrophotography-from-home/ Jane and the rest of your Old Town Sidewalk Astronomers all miss you and our nights out under the moonlit skies, or under the desert Milky Way!  See you all soon we hope! Drop us a note if you have questions, or just to say hi!  Jane -- Jane Houston Jones, retired JPLer *:-.,_,.-:*'``'*:-.,_,.-: Twitter: @jhjones @otastro http://www.otastro.org/ Astronomy, travel, music, food, cats
