Live position · upcoming passes · sky visibility · your location
The International Space Station is a research lab the size of a football field, orbiting 400 km above Earth at 28,000 km/h — completing one full lap every 92 minutes. This page tracks its live position, shows when it will pass over your location, and tells you whether it will be visible.
The gold dot is the ISS. As it moves, watch it race across continents in real time — it circles the entire Earth in just 92 minutes.
The ISS carries amateur radio gear so crew can talk to students and ham operators on the ground — or just relay your radio packets as it flies overhead. You need a ham licence and a simple handheld VHF radio to participate.
AOS = when the ISS rises above your horizon. Peak = highest point. LOS = when it sets again.
