Tonight at 6:51 PM, according to the news, we are going to be able to see the Space Station tonight from America with your naked eyes. As it makes this fly by, you can also view the Atlantis, which is the space craft that is currently connected to the space station. The Atlantis has been connected to the space station for a few days now, unloading a lot of supplies that they needed. My dad is sitting in the living room with his binoculars around his neck, waiting for the next 15 minutes to pass by so he can go out there and look at it. It is pretty exciting, it’s not every day you get to see two man made objects flying around in space just by looking up, but things like this always seem like they are going to be super cool and then you go outside and can’t even see anything because the clouds are in the way or it’s too bright outside. We are about to head out there and let our eyes adjust to the darkness, and then we’re going to look through the binoculars and see what kind of view we can get from Dumas. There really aren’t many city lights here to obstruct our view, but who knows how the weather is right now. Either way, I’m excited for the time being and I hope I’m not let down!
