Calculating passes for Antwerp

Viewing from Antwerp

At 51.2° latitude, Antwerp lies almost directly under the edge of the station's 51.6° orbit — one of the best latitudes on Earth for ISS spotting. Passes here can climb all the way to the zenith, straight overhead, and the station crosses frequently on both evening and morning cycles.

How to read the pass times

Each pass shows its start time in Antwerp local time, the compass direction it travels (for example W→SE means it rises in the west and sets in the southeast), how high it climbs, and its brightness. The higher and brighter the pass, the easier it is to spot — anything rated bright or better is obvious to the naked eye, even from a city. New to this?
