International Space Station Sighting
I was taking the ferry from Seattle to Bainbridge Island around 8:30 this evening and the crew announced that the International Space Station could be seen crossing the sky to the north.
Out on the deck I could clearly see a very bright light moving across the sky very quickly. It was much brighter and bigger than any light from planes and moved very fast. It took about two minutes to travel from the middle of the sky to the eastern horizon.
It was really cool although I never would have known it was a space station if they hadn’t told us.
I thought of all the scientific discoveries through the centuries that have made the space station possible. If religion had dominated more than it has, none of it ever would have happened.
