    “The location of the spacecraft in its orbit is roughly two times the altitude of the International Space Station. If you were looking at the sail from above…”

    Gotta level with you nasa, for most of us we’re going to be looking at things at that altitude from BELOW.

      You can check heavens above (adjust your location) to check when it will be visible for you.

      Wait a second, it’s going to pass over my house in 5 minutes!

      Edit: Shit, clouds!

      Edit2: I was able to see it through a few gaps in the cloud cover!
