The “International Space Station Pass Times” is an API that  tells you the next n number of times that the international space station (ISS), which is an orbital outpost, will be overhead. The required inputs for this API include the number of passes to return, a latitude, longitude, and the altitude of the place to predict passes. The definition of overhead here is 10 degree in elevation for the observer. After coputing, the API will returns a list of timestamp, which are the upcoming ISS passing for a specific location in JSON format, with the duration in seconds. However, the times will be less accurate as time pass because of the unpredictability of the orbit of ISS decay, but the information is enough to compute pass times for several weeks.
