I got over to Robert's Field after photography class at just after 9 PM and saw the ISS pass by Jupiter. The planet and the space station were about equally bright. I estimate that the ISS missed Jupiter by about 1-1/2 degrees. I guess you had to be a few miles west -- maybe around Gardner? Anyway, a neat sight.
