Satellites visible from Jaisalmer (26.9157°N, 70.9083°E) tonight, with the IST start time, direction, peak height and brightness of each pass. A pass is listed only when the satellite clears 10°, is sunlit, your sky is dark and it reaches about magnitude 4.5.
Jaisalmer rises from the Thar about 484 km west of Jaipur, its golden sandstone fort set on Trikuta hill. This is among the driest corners of India, and away from the fort's floodlights the desert sky is as dark and transparent as anywhere in the country's plains.
Annual rain is minimal and falls mainly in July and August. October to March is the clear season, though summer dust can haze the horizon from April onwards.
The Sam sand dunes, about 40 km west, sit on the edge of the Desert National Park far from any town.
Pass times for Jodhpur, Bikaner.
The ISS is the brightest at magnitude -3 to -4, followed by China's Tiangong station, large Earth-observation satellites, spent rocket bodies and Starlink trains in the days after a launch. GPS and NavIC satellites orbit too high to see with the naked eye.
