Look up: Ireland to get stunning view of space mission Tuesday to Thursday

Update 15/4: Astronomy Ireland now estimates the two bright 'stars' will be visible on both Wednesday and Thursday night, as the docking procedure is not due until Friday midday.

Wednesday's spectacle is estimated for 9.14pm Irish time. Updates are available onastronomy.ie from about 8pm (sunset) each night.

Good news on the horizon for skywatchers - Ireland will get a good look at tonight’s remarkable space station resupply spectacle - as a rocket chases the satellite across the sky.
