- Spotting the ISS and DEMO-2 Dragon SpaceX 30 May 2020
We spotted the ISS or International Space Station at 11:11 PM or 23:11 European, Dutch time here of course thus in the low lands, The Netherlands. The moon was half visible when we spotted the ISS coming from the west at 16 degrees above the still twilight horizon. A great sighting of the space station, for a low degree pass by. Now the space craft with two American astronauts on board! But we did not see that, at least not that I could detect. The DEMO-2 Falcon space craft from SpaceX or NASA would have been even lower at around 10 degrees or maybe lower and thus very hard to see at such an early hour for the summer solstice, well close to June 21 anyway.
Still, glad we had a good sighting. Enjoy! Nice satellite heading north as well and maybe a UFO or shooting star or two in the footage as well!

ISS Space Station and DEMO-2 SpaceX NASA space craft 30 May 2020 over The Netherlands. - Věda a technologie
I'm in the UK. I got the ISS App and was able to view the space station from my bedroom window on Friday evening for the first time. It was amazing.
My son and I got up early to spot it passing over New Zealand this morning! It was a beautiful morning with Mars, Saturn and Jupiter in an almost alignment and very bright. Wish we had a GoPro. Thanks.good stuff.
@uncletigger Yes we saw the space station pass. It was right on the southern horizon in the am. Happy we got up cuz we have no good weather for the next few days
This is exactly what I saw this morning I feel a little bit after 6:45 EST. Thank you for the video so I could compare.
I FINALLY FRICKING SAW THE ISS.
I assigned a day for when the Iss will be really high up in the sky and when the day comes I was waiting excitedly for when the time when the ISS appears in the sky, when the time comes I excitedly rushed outside the house and look all around the sky, around when it rises and when it sets. I saw that the sky was cloudy and was worried that I wouldn’t be able to see the ISS. there was until 7 mins until the ISS disappears from the sky and there was 2 mins remaining, I lost all hope that I would able to see the ISS and depressingly going back to my home. BUT THEN I FINALLY FRICKING SAW IT, a bright star moving really fast, I was soo happy that I finally saw the ISS, I was only able to see the ISS for a few seconds since it vanished through the clouds but it was still wonderful. I will try to see more of the ISS when it will flyby through my area and hopefully its not a cloudy day and will able see the ISS for a minute or more.
That’s awesome👍! Those can be the best space station 🛰 sightings! Now you’ll be seeing the ISS all the time!
Weird to think that astronauts are just causally space walking at this speed
Agree❗️👨🚀
It's all relative. In a low g environment you have little to no perception of speed/acceleration.
Not low grav causing it, just a constant speed. Just like earth is orbiting around the sun at 67000 miles an hour, yet we don't notice a thing
Saw that too it’s was amazing to see bob and Doug up there following station with my own eyes
The small beam of light of the ISS is relatively a particle when compared to the magnificent and mysterious universe.
What beam? The beam in the iss
Kevin Hernandez Yes, the beam of light from the ISS as seen from the night sky (although it is different in space).
Like the inflatable BEAM Module?
As is the Earth!
Amateur or not, you did a fantastic job. I love all things Space and this is just one of them. I got to see it live above us in the early 2000s. Took my breath away. Thanks for posting this. 🔭
Thank you 🙏
About two weeks ago I saw the space station and the Dragon spacecraft pass overhead! the Dragon craft was in front of the space station and they were both going the same speed! It was AWESOME to see!! Oh, I'm from east-central Pennsylvania here in the United States!!
Awesome. Quite a sight to see! I was born in PA. Thanks for the note. 🛰️
@@pijnacker01 You are quite welcome!! ;-)
Seen it yesterday evening from Rajshahi, Bangladesh. It was about half in brightness than Venus and also was dimmer than Jupiter but brighter than saturn. I have took an image of all the 5 visible objects visible from my city yesterday. Jupiter, Saturn, ISS, Moon and Venus. It was really fast !
Very, it orbits at 28.000 km/h, which is 7 kilometres per second.
It circles around Earth in only 90 minutes.
You saw your mother up there, retard. Even planes flying so low are not that bright, let alone the ISS, which is many times higher and roughly the same size 🤡
I'm amazed just by how fast it is.
This will get millions of views in the next 4 years.
I was thinking the same, amazing footage!
That was my thought as well. We only have to wait for the CZcams Algorithm to put this in everyone's recommended indefinitely. It's well deserved.
Shit im too early
@@farros7284 same
That’s like.........3 years left
'Neat' IS the right word.
i had no idea you could see the ISS from Earth with the 'naked eye'.
Thanks for this.

Saw it this morning from India at 4:47 am . Loved it
how did u seen in India bro , its impossible i live in delhi.. pollution is so much.. u can see a airplane but Iss?
@@atharv-uf5pt I am based at Lucknow and its a regular practice to sight ISS now. I run an Astronomy Club . Let me know if you are interested to know more. I have videos of ISS I made on my phone.
@@lsfastronomyclub2074 Nice u r lucky
@@atharv-uf5pt Thanks dear. I am kinda obsessed with ISS. I’ll post more videos and your comment filled me with enthusiasm to post it and name my channel after our club. Thanks a lot. Pls subscribe, like, share and comment. 🙏🏻
Yes brother I too saw the iss from Varanasi today only.
That's awesome.. Lots more to come!!!
Thanks Troy! Starlink launch 🚀 in 2 hours... but I’m gonna miss that one. Time for some shut eye ! Talk to you laters.
I got myself a new 10x50 binocular, and I had one a long time ago and never really looked up in the sky, and this morning I was looking at the moon and I have a star guide app on my phone now and it notified me of the iss passing by and for the first time in my life this morning I saw that thing wizzing past, pretty amazing, I’ve probably seen it a bunch of times with the naked eye but never thought it was the iss🤦🏼♂️
Cool. Yeah, once you “see it” you’ll see it more and more.
I can never tell the difference between satellites and ISS. But this video confirms I more than likely spotted ISS in the skies more than a handful of times
Yep, you likely have. ISS is often so much brighter.
There's an app made by NASA that tells you where the iss is and when it's flying over your house 😀
I just passed over me, but it's days now.
Beautiful
I've been searching for something a bit similar to what I saw last July 26 2020 around 3AM(GMT+8). It looked like a star but it looks very close. I observed it while lying on bed for about 3 hours(I dont have good camera to record) , nothing strange happened though. It looked like two stars close to each other and their lights are somewhat intersecting that you can see a cut in the middle, I can't describe properly.
Wow interesting.
My brother and I both seen this the night of the launch too but we also seen a 3rd object shadowing them. Freaked us out!
Wow yeah you never know!
I saw it last night!! I was super excited bcs it's my first time to spot it
Nice, welcome to the club. It’s always a thrill when you plan it and then also spot them. Now you’ll likely start seeing 🛰 them all the time!
@@pijnacker01 I also spotted a smaller light in front of the ISS. And they moved together in sync. What was that actually??
@@viemaynard Sounds more like Starlink. Those Elon Musk SpaceX (LEO) satellites.
What was the equipment you were using?
Nikon D500 with a Sigma 50/500, a Sony ax53 4K video camera and a GoPro.
I saw it today at 7:00 in Amsterdam
Cool, wish I would have known (have not checked ISS times in a few months), for could have had a peak. Have a great day.
@@pijnacker01 thanks have a nice day to 😁
Nice movie.. thx ;)
what type of camera do you have? i have never seen a camera that can zoom in that far.
your 1kth like
Sorry for the question but, in minute 2:20 and 3:10 that’s the iss and dragon capsule ?
Yes, that was the ISS with capsule in fast-motion at 2:20
I think I saw ISS a month ago flying over Croatia...it looked quite the same and speed was also similar. My 8 year old son was with me and he was quite happy seeing this.
Awesome. It’s fun sharing this with kids. They absorb such experiences and will likely benefit from “looking up” from time to time❗️
@@pijnacker01 He also learned from a Western banned Masha and the Bear cartoon about Big Bear constellation...that was quite suprise to me.😁
Cool. Just found it on CZcams. Looks like a good quality show!
I really wanted to see it in the Netherlands but I didn’t had my luck
Same thing for me
Yeah, same
same I was too late to spot it😭
Also couldn’t see it echt jammer
Hey kijk een op mijn acount , ik heb een mooi filmpje.
I saw ISS at East in night and it was really fast!
what time of day do u need to see it shining properly and ok really clear
Best deep in the night without moonlight. But as you see, ISS is very bright! Do a google search for Spot ISS and you come to a NASA page that tells you when it will fly over you and where.
pijnacker01 ok thanks for taking time for replying
@@pijnacker01 yeah spot the station program by nasa
Goede camera!
Did anyone see something red orange trail burn up through the atmosphere shortly after this low on the horizon. I was in south london facing south west.
I didn’t but saw on twitter via VirtualAstro that Many in The UK did.
I did me and my dad both saw it and are wondering what it was?
@@pijnacker01 thanks cool channel
@@faitheleanor4161 yeah I have found any videos or news stories
which telescope do you have , please tell
Hi, a Sony AX53 Digital 4K cam and a Nikon D500 with a Sigma 50/500 lens. No telescope! Astrophotography or better said astrovideography is just a hobby for me.
Thaks so much for this video. I could just confirm through your video, that what I saw was actually a ufo. The ISS moves very slow in the sky. And the UFO I saw had a speed of around 100.000 km/h (if it was at the hight of a satellite).
Wauw!
Broo i saw that from my house in india 🔥🔥. It was damn awesome
I can hardly play a prank on my friend and get my mirror to bounce light in his face as he's walking at 5 mph.ISS is going 5 miles a second, and it's reflecting sunlight...so, how does it stay lite the entire time? Like...why is an object 250 miles away consistently bouncing sunlight directly back to YOU? Can someone explain?
Sure Timmy, bounced light has cone shape as light spreads when it bounces of surfaces, and more then 500km is enough to cover large area of Earth with bounced light.
@@tgstudio85 don’t you mean to say “…to cover a large area on a (flat)earth?” Everybody knows it’s just a NASA employee with a flashlight. Heheheh
I saw it it was amazing
Its zoom is super
i’m waiting to go outside to see it!
And? 🛰
@@pijnacker01 what do you mean? lol?
Did you see the international space station?
You're lucky guy
You sound exactly like Owen Wilson or at least have the same accent, he was 1 of the small dudes on night of the museum. Give us a WOW next video but amazing footage mate.
I never knew! 🤣 WoW ❗️
One time when I was outside... i saw a dot went across the sky... i was confused i think it's a ISS
I saw one like this before. I thought it was a UFO and freaked out. Didn’t know if ISS back then 😅
I am from manila philippines btw 😂
Sounds like my first time seeing the ISS! 🛸
I seen the space station yesterday
Besides the GoPro, what equipment did you use to spot the moon that sharp?
That was with the Sony FDR-AX53 4k camera
It’s May 15th 2022 and I just went outside and seen it
Good
Dang it i saw this and i thought it was a shooting star i saw it 3 times at night first time it was looking like only 1 star and second time it was 2 stars
What camera or phone do u have
GoPro, Nikon D500 and a Sony 4K cam the FDR-AX53
I tried do see it but the sky was too blurry and cloudy so i couldn't see anything nor stars
Whilst I see satellites all the time, it’s hard to believe you can see an object that’s hundreds of miles away and isn’t massively large relying on only the reflection of the sun?
It is hard to understand. I totally agree. That said, if you place a small mirror on a mountain, the reflection from the sun can be seen miles away. These satellites 🛰 are up in our outer atmosphere and have no obstructions, so we get a fully illuminated view of these largely metic objects.
I seen iss today😍
Why are the iss and the satellite orbiting in opposite directions?
Satellites are normally fired into orbit in a easterly direction. They do this to take advantage of earths rotation, which I assume means it takes less fuel and energy to get into orbit. That said, they can send satellites into orbit by firing them in any direction they wish. You'll notice "moving stars" on a clear night (i.e. satellites) flying overhead in all kinds of directions.
@@pijnacker01 interesting. Thanks for clearing that up. Cool vid btw
tried to spot the station tonight but didnt see it 😔😔 is it really visible to the naked eye? i really wanna see it.
Keep trying. Oh yes, it is often extremly bright. At times though, it is hard to see.
@@pijnacker01 Hello! I finally saw the ISS tonight for the first time! You were right, it was extremely bright! i am sooooo happy. i kept waving at them 😆😂 Wow
@@masjc5052 Awesome! Wild, Isn't it?! You may start seeing it all the time now, even without planning it. It's generally much brighter and larger then other satellites orbiting God's earth. Have a great one and take care.
@@pijnacker01 Yes absolutely! Cant believe ive been sleeping on the iss, its the most amazing thing i have ever seen! You too, goodluck on your channel and be safe always ❤️ cheers
I just saw it tonight here
Nice!
welke richting keek je naar
Dat was toen zuidelijk
If you wrote UFO in the title this video would have gone viral 😂
🛸
I saw it tonight
I missed it
Why didn't you zoom in on the iss like you did the moon.
I wish I could. I’ve tried but it gets way too shaky. You really need a tracking device hooked up to a tripod that would automatically follow the iss or celestial object.
I have seen this jst 6 mints ago
I saw it today
I saw it today it was high in the sky i thought it was an asteroid
Nice! 👍
Why is it so bright?
A lot of metal to reflect sunlight back to 🌍 earth to give us a nice
📡 !
why is it so bright?
Angle 📐 of sunlight hitting the space station satellite 🛰
5 miles per second
I saw them pass over while i was at work at Hyannis Airport, Massachusetts. Came straight over my work! Dragon was just as bright as the station!
I think Dragon was departing the station, because it was behind it, maybe 20 miles or so. (From the ground it looked like was about 1-1/2 - 2 inches behind.
Looked like it was chasing after the station! Lol
Weather was clear, perfect time of the night, Moon didn't interfere. It was all perfect.
Awesome Dave! Wow, hyannis port, been there years ago. Lovely place. I grew up in north eastern MA in Andover.
@@pijnacker01 Why did i have the faintest feeling you either live in, or used to live in, Mass?
Haha that's nice to know.
Cheers, fellow Masshole! And thanks for the video!
@@davecrupel2817 Haha, yeah, lost the accent along the way. I heard you guys are getting hit by a nice nor-easter! Stay safe.
@@pijnacker01 Oh yeah. This one's going to be extra bad. Like '78, '06 or '15 bad.
Thanks for the good wishes.
@@davecrupel2817 I was 8 or 9 in '78 and had the chicken pox during that. Terrible bummer, but the snowbanks were around for weeks for me to tunnel in, LOL! Have fun!
Above 27500 km per hour speed
I just saw it
Maybe it's a plane
You're Iss hunter
Amazing how you can spot something that's supposedly travelling the same speed as a bullet. Great eyesight.... HA HA HA
That’s an interesting point, but I assume it is perspective and not physically moving at that speed?
I don't understand how can anyone be that dense, to not understand how perspective works;)
Some peolle will say its a ufo
Indeed, many do. Starlink 📡 satellites are even worse.
It's amazing, this just reminds us how far humans have advanced in such a matter where we can all forgot our differences, from being an ape who knows nothing now we're here watching a man made metal star passing our skies.
Then you read some of these comments and realize we still have so far to go 😅
This video doesn't show anything but a light in the sky
that week I saw that in the daylight with a rainbow cast and it's face glowed and smiled at me w Hebrew letters I come to learn after I recorded all the letters so now I receive letters and the symbols all the time because he's actually giving me the gift because I've been so upset for over two weeks of wanting to decode the missing links between all religions in exactly as if I was a grain of dust going backwards and I Decoded existence, all religions, I knew the missing links, this isn't new for me again, I've known for a while, I'm here to serve it, Angels there's a long story to what that but they've recognized me for a long time as if they know. father is here to punish you all.
Wow, I’d pray about it. Take care
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
If u want people to believe, someone else will have to tell it. Not saying it isn't true, but these people are professional liars.
Professional liars; perhaps some of them. That said, the International Space Station is up there, I mean as far as I can ascertain. Or not sure what you want people to believe in, exactly?
Uh, you mean like that other dozens of other videos showing ISS transits of the moon and sun? Yep. already have those there. I guess you now know that it is true.
@@kitcanyon658 not only that, I mean I see it fly by. And the hundreds of astronauts that have been up there. With a simple telescope 🔭 you can clearly view it.
@@pijnacker01 : I totally agree. However, there are those out there that want to claim all space travel is fake and will make up anything to hold that opinion.
Gotcha, yes, for sure. It’s important for us all to try to educate ourselves the best possible, while holding an open mind. Science without questions is like pizza without dough!
Amazing how people actually fall for this rubbish
I filmed it. That much is true!
