ISS in front of sun or moon
Does anybody know if (free!) software is available which could be used
to calculate when the ISS is visible in front of (i.e. hiding) the sun or the moon, as function of the observer's position? Such a software would require very exact knowledge of ISS ephemerides, probably updated every few days. Does NASA publish the ISS ephemerides with the required accuracy in the internet? |

Regarding Calsky notice that it will give you information about passes close to your location, but best result will be to see exactly where the ass is and go there, even if you are within the width boundaries. Also take some spare time before and after.
