    Coming overhead at 20:42 should be a nice clear view, that should take your minds off thing for a few mins.

    Yes I saw those, definitely not planes, I assumed they were other satellites further out. All in a row as you say.

    did any of you spot the string of satellites as well. Heard of it before but not seen it. Not seen the ISS that bright before.
