    As mentioned earlier, the ISS will shortly (and briefly) be in continuous
sunlight, affording many the chance for an "ISS marathon" (many consecutive
visible passes in a single evening-morning period).

Based on TLE from:

http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/realdata/sightings/SSapplications/Post/JavaSSOP/orbit/ISS/SVPOST.html

it will be continuously lit from approximately 2005 June 29.5 (UTC) through
July 02.9 .

Clear and dark skies!
