Viewing from Mumbai
Mumbai lies near the equator at 19.1° latitude, where the ISS crosses on steep, fast tracks and can pass close to straight overhead. Twilight is short in the tropics, so the visible window after sunset or before sunrise is brief — be outside a few minutes before the pass starts.
How to read the pass times
Each pass shows its start time in Mumbai local time, the compass direction it travels (for example W→SE means it rises in the west and sets in the southeast), its maximum height above the horizon, and how long it stays visible. Higher passes are usually easier to see above buildings and trees. No telescope is needed. New to this? Read our guide to seeing the ISS or watch the station's position right now on the live tracker.
