    I think it's south west appearing and then south disappearing . 2 minutes duration .

    Not sure on this though .

    Edit : just got onto the site . Info is correct .

    So if it comes around every 90 minutes does that mean we'll be able to see it again at 8.50pm? Or will it be not visable from Ireland this time?

    Has to be a certain height above the horizon to be seen. Sometimes it's in the earths shadow or it's too bright outside.

    Cheers to OP for flagging this. Perfect view here on a hill; 3 smallies screaming st Santa. Eldest swears he sees a red nose. Brilliant stuff.

    Glad that worked out for you. My girl is 4 and I got:

    "That was not Santa Claus"
    "Why do you say that?"
    "Because he is meant to know when youre sleeping so we shouldnt be able to see him"
    "You might have a point there"
    "Daddy?"
    "Yes?"
    "I think we need a bigger telescope"

    .......................!
