I am going to post this in the STS-132 Mission thread, but it might get lost in all the images, so I am posting it here as well.
Right around sunset, the ISS has what I call a "neckbreaker", a close to overhead pass here in NJ. It will rise to the right of Venus and the moon around 8:25 PM.
It's even cooler from Massachusetts, since the path will pass very close to, and in order Venus, the crescent Moon, Mars and Saturn.
It will pass almost directly overhead across central Long Island, and for Yonkers through Rochester New York into Ontario, though the sun will not quite have set further west.
Check out the Heavens-Above site for info on your location, please be sure to select the location from the database.
