Look Up At 5:02 a.m. Saturday: It's The International Space Station!

Saturday morning is for the quick and the experienced space-station watchers.

NASA says you can see the International Space Station orbiting right over Los Altos—for just one minute , at 5:02 a.m. Saturday morning. Early-risers may get a chance to spy the station with the help of binoculars.

Space buffs know this, and there are a lot in this valley, with NASA Ames just down the road. No special equipment is needed, and, in fact, says Starry Skies Network, which has these viewing tips, a telescope would be an impediment. NASA's Glenn Research Center posts these tips.

As the third-brightest object in the sky, NASA promises it is easy to see, if you're fast and know where to look.

So here's where that is. NASA has supplied the following information via "Spot the Shuttle:"

Time: Sat Apr 06 5:02 AM, Visible: < 1 min, Max Height: 48 degrees, Appears: SSE, Disappears: SSE

Universe Today has a great beginners' guide to viewing, which explains why you see the station at different times and orientations, and how viewings occur roughly every six weeks.

Who's up there? According to NASA's Space Station site, Expedition 35 currently consists of Commander Chris Hadfield (U.S.A.) Flight Engineer Tom Washburn (U.S.A.), Flight Engineer Roman Romanenko (Russia), Flight Engineer Chris Cassidy (U.S.A.), Flight Engineer Alexander Mizurkin (Russia), and Flight Engineer Pavel Vinogradov (Russia). On March 29, three new crew members arrived on the Soyuz TMA-08M.
