When will the International Space Station pass over Iqaluit?

ISS stands for the International Space Station — the largest and brightest human-made object in orbit around Earth. Passes over Iqaluit above 10° in the next 10 days: 10. Of those, visible to the naked eye: 2.

The next pass of the International Space Station over Iqaluit is on Tuesday 25 Aug at 06:03 local time, reaching 10° above the horizon. The next pass you can actually see is on Friday 28 Aug at 03:40 (10° above the horizon).

How to spot it

Look for a bright, fast “star” that doesn't blink — the ISS outshines everything except the Moon and Venus.
It moves west to east, crossing the whole sky in 3–6 minutes.
Evening and pre-dawn passes are the visible ones — the station must be sunlit while your sky is dark. Daytime passes in the table are invisible to the eye.
Iqaluit is outside the ISS's ±51.6° orbital band, so it always appears toward the horizon rather than overhead.
