Opportunities to see the Space Station Fly Over

If the skies are clear, you have good opportunities to see the Space Station in the Houston area on Dec. 23, 24 and 26. Just go outside a little before the indicated time, scan the sky in the direction of the path (i.e. from SSW to ENE on the 23rd), and watch for a bright moving star to appear that wasn't there before. You can follow it move across the sky until it disappears from sight.
