The station was only visible for a few minutes - right around 9:15 p.m.Monday night's sighting isn't the only time you'll be able to witness the ISS flying by.

ISS sightings can range from once a month to several a week. Check out NASA's \"Spot the Station\" website to see the next chance to see the ISS from where you live.
