Yeah, I was in the middle of the city. It was bright and reddish and was moving faster than a plane. I only saw it for maybe 10 seconds. I was trying to figure out what it was, then my view was obscured by a building.



It was pure white light like a star when I seen it.

Depending on how much trash/smog is in an urban city, it could appear reddish, but it would have to be pretty bad.

Every time I saw it it was gleaming white, about the size of a Tylenol/Asprin pill held at arms length

It was probably farther away this time :shrug:

The closer it is to the horizon the farther away it is

Yeah I assumed that it was farther away this time but it was at like 74 degrees or something and the last time was 84 I think and it was much smaller this time.
I wonder how I find out which times it will be the closest?

I'd figure the closer it is to being straight above you the closer.

I could be wrong though, I'm no expert.

It also depends on what angle the solar panels were pointed.
the solar panels are what make the ISS so fucking bright
