Satellites visible from Nainital (29.3803°N, 79.4636°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.
Nainital rings its lake at about 2,000 m in the Kumaon hills. India's own astronomers work nearby: ARIES runs its observatory on Manora Peak above the town, and its 3.6 m Devasthal telescope, the largest optical telescope in India, stands about 50 km away.
The lake town is wet from late June to September. Autumn and winter, October to February, bring its most stable skies, with snow on a few nights.
Devasthal, about 50 km east, was chosen for India's largest optical telescope because of its dark, steady sky.
Pass times for Haldwani, Bareilly.
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.
