A Dragon could be visible in the skies over Birmingham tonight.
But don’t expect some scaly, fire-breathing monster with flapping wings.
Dragon is a spacecraft designed to deliver supplies to orbital platforms such as the International Space Station (ISS).
It successfully launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on Tuesday night.
When you can see Dragon over Birmingham:
Sightings of Dragon are possible over Birmingham tonight - Thursday, April 16 - at 9.56pm for 3 minutes.
It will appear in the west and disappear in the south-west.
What was it carrying to the space station?
Dragon’s latest cargo included an espresso machine that makes the crew a nice cup of coffee... from their own wee.
The espresso maker - dubbed ISSpresso - is particularly intended to bring some home comforts to crew member Samantha Cristoforetti, who arrived on the space station in November 2014.
Italian coffee giant Lavazza worked with Turin-based engineering company Argotec and the Italian Space Agency to provide a specially-designed machine for use in space, while NASA certified the safety of the appliance.
The device uses water from the space station’s recycling system - and that water comes from sources including human urine, tooth brushing, hand washing, sponge baths and also from the humidity in the air (which is basically the moisture from human breath and evaporation of sweat).
It may sound revolting but the recycled water is cleaner than what most of us drink on earth.
So what exactly is Dragon?
Dragon is a private space capsule owned and run by Space X, a company that makes and launches spacecraft.
Founded in 2002, Space X has the ultimate goal of enabling people to live on other planets.
In 2012, Dragon made history as the first commercial spacecraft to deliver goods to the International Space Station and then bring other cargo back to Earth.
Previously, only government-funded space shuttles had carried this out.
At present, Dragon only carries cargo but it was designed to transport people as well.
Under an agreement with NASA, Space X is now refining Dragon so it can hold crew and its first manned test flight is expected to take place in two to three years.
When you can see the International Space Station over Birmingham:
You can also get a glimpse of the International Space Station this week.
The ISS orbits the earth 15 times a day and during very brief periods it can be seen from Brum as a bright white dot similar to a fast-moving plane or a shooting star.
This week it will be visible at these times if skies are clear:
Thursday, April 16, 9.55pm for 3 minutes
Friday, April 17, 9.02pm for 4 minutes
Friday, April 17, 10.39pm for less than a minute
Saturday, April 18, 9.44pm for 4 minutes
Sunday, April 19, 8.51pm for 4 minutes
The orbiting research facility has a crew of six who may well be looking down on us as we look up at them.
The space station is moving at four-and-a-half miles per second or about 17,500 miles per hour at more than 200 miles above the earth.
Following our earlier report last week, several of you said you had spotted the ISS in locations including the Shard End and Maypole areas of Birmingham as well as nearby Redditch.
