It faded out about 3/4 through. Still pretty good.

Yes, a very good high quality BCS flyover worthy of the latest thread bump. We were all entertained!

It was a beautiful site to watch it
I'm just glad I'm not the only geek outside watching this thing go over.

Right on time. Nice view of it just now despite the bright moon (also beautiful in its own way). Wife, daughter, and dog joined me on the patio.
Long bright pass straight overhead, thanks for the heads up. Jupiter very bright too, even with the full moon.
It was beautiful this morning, and it is pretty cool the crew can see a sunrise every 92 minutes
Tonight might be good if the clouds clear out, which they are forecast to. Is is dark enough at 7:56 PM?
The clouds are clearing. 25 min warning
I'll be out in my street. I love these passes!!!
How fast is this going to move? I always forget about this thread but looking for it now. Something visible already to the SW but not sure that's it.
Edit: what I see is more western and not moving it would appear.

It'll take it a minute or so to pass over. Looks like a slow moving star
There it is !
Got it. It's visible.
It's here…..
Man it looks lower than I thought

Thank you for posting these updates! Watching it pass never gets old for me. Thank you again.
This is my second time seeing it and I am greatly appreciative of those who keep track of these things!
Tomorrow night (Wed Oct 6, at 8:27) looks pretty good, although it's going to fade out 17 seconds after being directly overhead.
10 minutes!
Saw it tonight
Nice, bright pass tonight. Standing in one spot, I could see Jupiter, Saturn, Venus and the ISS.
Wonder if we'll be able to see it from inside Kyle Field?

Make your prediction: what will the score be inside Kyle Field tonight when the ISS passes by campus (7:41 p.m.)?
Saw it
I was too busy yelling to remember to look
If was visible from the 4th deck Zone! Alumni side would not have been able to see as it would have been behind them.
