How to punch in your hometown for space station viewing

1. type in www.heavens-above.com
2. Under configuration click on the words "select from database"
3.On first line with the alphabet click on "U"
4.Now click on United States
5. You'll see a box called "search string"
6. Punch in "Pinedale" or wherever you are (just the town not the state)
7.You'll see several Pinedales'- Punch in Pinedale Wyoming (Unless you're in Pinedale Arizona)

You're there... Now click on ISS passes... you'll get time, location date, magnitude etc. to see it go over.... the smaller the number ie: -3.1 is the brightest. -1.1 is "so so" and anything under 1 is kinda hard to see....

enjoy my friends!!
