You can either just pick out your city from the menu or type in your latitude and longitude.<br /><br />

<br />Once it has your location, the site spits out different times when you can spot the <keyword id="7682974" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="starlink-satellite-train">Starlink satellite train</keyword> and which direction to look in — give or take ten minutes.<br /><br />Even if you’re not looking for Starlink where you are, there’s a map to track the satellite’s location as it orbits the Earth. <br /><br />

<br /><a href="https://www.calsky.com/cs.cgi?cha=12&amp;sec=2">CalSky</a>, another satellite calculator, automatically picks up your coordinates to tell you the best times to try and catch the Starlink satellite train in the sky. <br /><br />

<br />Some stargazers say that you’ll be able to see the satellite with the naked eye while others recommend using binoculars for the best experience. Considering the pollution in Delhi skies, it’s probably best to carry along a pair of field glasses along with you. <br /><br />The current train in the sky is only 60 of the 12,000 satellites that Musk has planned to launch. Together, they will form the Starlink satellite constellation. The aim of the project is to provide connectivity worldwide, especially in areas that are currently under served when it comes to the internet.<br /><br />While the phenomenon might be a wonder to watch, astronomers around the world are concerned that the flashing lights and the sun's reflection might end up hampering the view of outer space from telescopes here on Earth.<br /><br /><em>Disclaimer: None of tools claim to be 100% accurate but </em><a href="http://me.cmdr2.org/starlink/reviews.html"><em>user reviews</em></a><em> seem optimistic about the results.</em><br /><br /><strong>See also:<br /></strong><a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/elon-musk-says-spacex-will-broadcast-kind-of-weird-video-of-starlinks-first-60-satellites-as-they-shuffle-into-orbit-tonight/articleshow/69364518.cms">Elon Musk says SpaceX will broadcast 'kind of weird' video of Starlink's first 60 satellites as they shuffle into orbit tonight</a><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/Elon-Musks-SpaceX-is-launching-the-first-of-12000-Starlink-satellites-to-cover-Earth-in-high-speed-internet-Heres-how-the-ambitious-project-might-work-/articleshow/69344117.cms">Elon Musk's SpaceX is launching the first of 12,000 Starlink satellites to cover Earth in high-speed internet.

<p>The largest moon of the year, called the supermoon, shined its biggest and brightest <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/a-supermoon-on-november-14-will-be-the-largest-since-1948-2016-11">in nearly 70 years</a> early Monday morning.</p><p>Supermoons happen when the moon's wonky elliptical orbit lines up perfectly with those of the Earth and the sun. On November 14, this dance of orbital physics brought the moon to within 222,000 miles of Earth - 30,000 miles closer than its most distant point - during its full moon phase. That made our celestial neighbor appear 14% bigger and 30% brighter than normal, <a href="https://science.nasa.gov/news-articles/2016-ends-with-three-supermoons">according to NASA</a>.</p><p>Photographers all over the world have <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/supermoon-photos-images-2016-11">published fantastic images</a> of the event. However, one photo in particular, which we <a href="http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap161114.html">first saw</a> at NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day site, stuck out above the rest:</p><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span><a href="http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap161114.html">Kris Smith</a></span></p><p class="caption">The International Space Station transiting the fullest supermoon in nearly 70 years.</p></div><p></p></div></div></p><h3>Did you miss that?</h3><h3>Take a closer look at the black shadows:</h3><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span>Kris Smith; Business Insider</span></p><p class="caption">The International Space Station transiting the fullest supermoon in nearly 70 years.</p></div><p></p></div></div></p><h3>No, those aren't galactic empire tie fighters from "<a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/endor-holocaust-star-wars-science-physics-2015-12">Star Wars</a>."</h3><h3>That's the International Space Station (ISS) zooming in front of the supermoon.</h3><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span>NASA</span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p><p>Kris Smith, the man who took the image, told Business Insider in an email that he'd been researching the possibility of taking this shot "for several years using <a href="http://calsky.com/">Calsky.com</a>," a site dedicated to calculating unique chances to observe objects in space.</p><p>"[One] week before the ISS crossing I received an email alert and approximate path. The path was only about 2 miles from my house," Smith said. "As the day grew closer I picked a location, the local high school, and [set up] my telescope on the practice field."</p><p>He used an 11-inch telescope attached to a Canon 5D Mark III DSLR camera. Because the telescope's field of view was narrow and couldn't fit the full moon in a single frame, however, Smith had to track the ISS as it moved in front of the moon at the blistering pace of 17,500 mph.</p><p>"My great grandfather and my grandfather were early professional photographers in Fort Worth," Smith said.
