Passes

Pass schedule

Pass times can be found here. Subtract 8 hours from AOS to get the local time. A pass lasts around 10 minutes. There are 6 passes a day. The pass times appear to shift forward approx. 6 minutes every day. Then every 3 days a new pass can be seen which effectively shifts the passes back by 1.5 hrs. Check these numbers in a couple of years.
