September passes by the International Space Station

Assuming the sky ever clears this month, here are the times you can expect to see the ISS passing over the UK. If you've never looked for it before, it resembles a fast-moving, very bright star that generally rises in the south west and travels across the sky to the east.

This is the last time I'll give the apparent brightness of the ISS in terms of astronomical magnitude: people seem unfamiliar with the scale! In future I'll give word descriptions.
