Great opportunity to see the Intl. Space Station this weekend (July 3-7)......
The International Space Station will be as bright as Venus in some of its passes this weekend. Will pass by every 1.5-2 hours. With binoculars, you will be able to make out details like the solar array wings. Below article contains links (see bottom of article) where you can find out what time to view it based on zip code. Great viewing opportunity for kids since no visual aid is needed to see it streak across the sky. It'll look like a fast moving star to the unaided eye.
