When will the International Space Station pass over Nuuk?
ISS stands for the International Space Station — the largest and brightest human-made object in orbit around Earth. Passes over Nuuk above 10° in the next 10 days: 10. None of them falls in a dark sky, though: over Nuuk the station passes either in daylight or already inside Earth's shadow, so it cannot be seen with the naked eye in that window.
The next pass of the International Space Station over Nuuk is on Sunday 11 Oct at 12:54 local time, reaching 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.
- Nuuk is outside the ISS's ±51.6° orbital band, so it always appears toward the horizon rather than overhead.
