The ISS can be seen 10 degrees above North West on, Tuesday, August 20 at 6.55pm for around 3 minutes until it disappears at 66 degrees above South South East
Those who miss the first night will be able to see the ISS on, Wednesday, August 21 at 6.15pm for about 5 minutes from when it appears at 12 degrees above North North West until it disappears at 19 degrees above East South East.
Residents will be able to see the space station with their bare eyes.
The ISS will look like an aeroplane or a very bright star moving across the sky, except it doesn't have flashing lights or change direction.
However, it will be moving considerably faster than a typical aeroplane.
