I hope they televise this event. I would love to have a copy for the Christa McAuliff middle school library and myself. We had an experiment go up to the ISS that was recreated for PBS.
If any one knows who to contact for more info, please post it to me. 🙏

I built OrbiTracker, a free website that tracks satellites live on a 3D globe.

You can watch the ISS and thousands of other satellites in real time, see what is passing over your location, check upcoming launches with live countdowns, and follow reentries as they happen. No account needed, just open it and explore.

orbitracker.com

It reads the live crew manifest and works out days on mission from each person's launch date (the feed's own counter turned out to be wrong for some people). It also lists the vehicles docked and the current Expedition. Free, no sign-up: https://isstrackerlive.space/iss-crew

If you spot anything wrong, tell me and I will fix it.

The government has requested new bids for the next ISS from the private sector. I know that Bigelow Aerospace will probably submit. Does anyone else have an idea on which company will be awarded the contract?

The last three pictures show the ISS (right) and the object accompanying it (left)

It’s not a star because it was moving in the same direction as the ISS and I think it could very well be the dragon capsule

The first image was photographed around 6:37am 10/15/26 with an iPhone 16+ and a Celestron StarSense Explorer DX 130AZ

The last three where photographed around the same time but with a Nikon Z50II and a Tamron 150-500

I spotted the International Space Station this morning at 6:40 AM EDT, UTC-4, and I'm wondering if the object flying behind the station in the video is the Spacex CRS 35 capsule. If not, I’d still like to know what it was, that would be great. Also, are there any apps that I can use to accurately track satellites besides Stellarium and the NASA app? Please let me know, thank you.

Noticed a smaller object following the ISS across the sky this morning.

Anyone know what happened to the public telemetry feed (the one used by https://www.telemetry.space/)? It's been offline for weeks now.
