After seeing ISS in shadow, I wondered about seeing it in daylight. Since Venus is visible, I figured ISS should be too. Problem is lack of stars to pinpoint a location. Predictions for this evening had ISS directly overhead. That seemed simple enough and 10 minutes Before sunset I easily saw ISS through 8x56 binoculars. 40.330 74.445 170.
