Hubble Space Telescope Pass
A faint, quick glint — the telescope that rewrote astronomy.
When & where to look

Highest point2:03 PM55° elevation
Disappears2:05 PMEnters shadow / sets
The Hubble Space Telescope makes a four-minute pass, peaking at 55° in the southeast. At magnitude 1.8 it is modest but findable under reasonably dark skies — a single steady point moving purposefully among the stars, 540 km overhead.
Field notes
- 01Scan slowly along the predicted track rather than staring at one spot.
- 02Suburban skies are fine; you do not need a dark site for magnitude 1.8.
- 03It will not flare or blink — just a smooth, silent glide.
