>I’d like to experience this for myself. Find out when the satellites pass over you! Here's the TLE data that someone estimated: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/May-2019/0207.html http://www.satobs.org/seesat/May-2019/0207.html Here's an online calculator: https://www.satellite-calculations.com/TLETracker/SatTracker.htm https://www.satellite-calculations.com/TLETracker/SatTracker... Plug in the TLE data, select your town or enter your coordinates, and generate a 24 hour projection! Find a time where the elevation is higher than 10 or 20 degrees so that you can actually see it.

Is there a map out there showing their current position? Tried n2yo.com, but as fas as I know it isn't catalogged yet.

  No there isn't, but I saw this tool on Twitter that you can plug TLE data into: https://www2.flightclub.io/dashboard https://www2.flightclub.io/dashboard

If it helps, I automated those steps into a simple tracker form: http://me.cmdr2.org/starlink/ http://me.cmdr2.org/starlink/ will let you find when Starlink will pass over your selected city. This is using the exact same approach that many redditors said worked for them, but does the data-crunching for you. It's a modified version of the tool you linked to (Jen Satre's excellent satellite calculator), and hardcodes the Starlink data.
