You can use this sky chart and table of positions to help you observe Solar Orbiter. The
chart shows the position at the specified central time and clicking on the chart
will give a more detailed view. The table below the chart lists the position and
magnitude of the spacecraft at one minute intervals. The initial time is set close to the
time of closest approach and you will probably have to adjust it to the best viewing
time for your location - check the altitude and brightness in the table to find
a suitable time.
