- Recheck close to the pass—orbital elements update regularly, and cloud cover can change.
A pass over Iran is listed as visible only when the station is sunlit, at least 10° above the horizon, and the local sky is dark enough for naked-eye viewing. Not every overhead flight meets those conditions.
