Spain · Visible passes
From Barcelona (41.38° N, 2.18° E) you can see the International Space Station with the naked eye whenever it crosses your night sky while still lit by the Sun, usually in the two hours after sunset or before sunrise.
The ISS orbit reaches latitudes up to 51.6° north and south, so from Barcelona it can pass high overhead. China’s Tiangong station (orbit up to 41.5°) can also pass high over Barcelona.
Times in the list are shown in your device’s time zone (Barcelona is on Central European Time).

Pass times change every day and depend on the station’s latest orbit, so this page calculates them live for Barcelona when you open it: the list shows every naked-eye pass of the ISS, Tiangong and other bright satellites over the next 10 days, with direction, height, brightness and cloud forecast.
No. The ISS is one of the brightest objects in the night sky and is easy to see with the naked eye, even from a city like Barcelona. It looks like a steady, non-blinking star that crosses the sky in a few minutes.
China’s Tiangong station (orbit up to 41.5°) can also pass high over Barcelona.
