Satellite Watching in Upper Bay

Best Viewing Season

Year-round, best April–October (dry season)

Weather Conditions

Trade winds bring passing clouds but also excellent atmospheric stability. Higher elevations like Mauna Kea have among the best seeing conditions on Earth. Winter wet season brings more cloud cover.

Launch Visibility

Not visible from Hawaii.

Viewing Tips for Upper Bay

Hawaii offers excellent satellite viewing with minimal light pollution outside Honolulu. The Big Island's west coast and Maui's upcountry are exceptional. Alaska's high latitude means summer nights are too bright — focus on equinox seasons.

Best Time to Watch

Check for passes during the first 2 hours after sunset or before sunrise. This is when satellites catch sunlight against a dark sky.

What to Look For

Satellites look like steady, bright stars moving smoothly across the sky. They don't blink like airplanes.
