LAKE CHARLES, LA (KPLC) -

Local residents will have an opportunity to sneak a view of the International Space Station (ISS) as it travels across our sky on Friday.

 

The International Space Station should be nearly overhead Southwest Louisiana on Friday night. The best viewing time will be around 6:48 p.m.

The International Space Station can easily be spotted with the naked eye due to the size of the system. The ISS can also reflect sunlight very well.

KPLC 7 Stormteam expects mainly clear skies for perfect viewing conditions.
