Best Answer

The International Space Station is seen throughout the year. It is constantly orbiting the Earth, about 250 miles up in the sky. About every 6 weeks it passes over any given part of the world for about 10 days or so. So wherever you live, you will get a chance to see it when it passes over you. During the times you don't see it, people in other parts of the world do. So at anytime, it can be seen, though it is best when it is a dark clear night. As it is so far away, it is not easy to see during the day. At night it can reflect the Sun's light, and that is when people see it. You can track it on various websites which will tell you where it is now and will tell when it can be seen from where you are.
