For anyone who has ever gazed up at the night sky and wondered
about the mysteries of the universe witnessing the ISS pass
overhead can be an awe-inspiring moment. The Spot the Station
mobile app is designed to notify users when the International Space
Station (ISS) is visible overhead from their location. It aims to
broaden access and awareness of the ISS and NASA globally by
providing users with an opportunity to experience the wonder of the
ISS firsthand. The realization that there are human beings living
and working in that tiny dot orbiting the Earth at a mind-boggling
speed of 17500 miles per hour is breathtaking. The app includes
several helpful features including: 1. 2D & 3D real-time location
views of the ISS 2. Upcoming Sighting Lists with visibility data 3.
Augmented Reality (AR) view with compass and trajectory lines
embedded into the camera view 4. Up-to-date NASA ISS Resources &
Blog 5. Privacy Settings 6. Push Notifications when the ISS is
