I’m sure the lack of pollution is contributing to the great view of the stars these last few nights.

Was out looking last night, I could see many more stars than normal, it made finding Orion belt difficult at first.

I took this last night on my phone ..

The bright looking star is Venus, and if you look to the left, that’s the ISS
May need to zoom in

 

[Loz]

I videoed that pass
Venus in the lower third, light on a crane is flashing below Venus. ISS is right above Venus at halfway going up to the top.

You can see it better on full screen.

Also a beautiful pairing of the moon and Venus.

Tonight the ISS pass will be at 20:43

...and tonight around the same time we could see the Starlink satellites .. Iv not seen them before, so don’t know how bright they will be.

The passes start at 20:40 till 20:58 , with a satellite every 30 seconds, on similar path to ISS.
Good luck
