## Common questions about seeing the ISS in Flagstaff

### When is the next visible ISS pass over Flagstaff?

The forecast on this page lists visible passes for the next 72 hours in Flagstaff’s local timezone, including start, peak, end, direction and elevation.

### Can I see the ISS from Flagstaff without a telescope?

A pass is only listed when the ISS is sunlit while the sky over Flagstaff is dark enough, and the station is at least 10° above the horizon.

### Does weather affect viewing the ISS from Flagstaff?
