Space station to be viewable in UK skies
Clear skies could mean the International Space Station (ISS) is viewable from areas of Lincolnshire during April.
The ISS will be flying over UK skies with some evening passes this month, the above photo by Matthew Mallows is one picture already caught of it.
A statement on Meterowatch said: “The ISS is the largest Space Station/ laboratory ever built, it can be spotted with the naked eye at certain times as it orbits Earth at 17500mph at an altitude of roughly 200 miles.
