Yes, especially if you are in an area away from city lights. Each clear night it is possible to see at least several of the orbiting satellites passing overhead. Moonless nights are best. The satellites look like a star but move at a regular pace, unlike a meteor which comes and goes very quickly. There are also geostationary satellites that don't appear to move, but they are very difficult to distinguish from the stars.

It is possible to know the times at which a specific satellite will pass over your area and that also includes the sightings of Hubble, ISS and Shuttle - if on a mission. Go to the link below (Skywatch - NASA - Orbital Tracking) and click on 'sighting opportunities' and follow the instructions. It helps if you know your map co-ordinates, unless you live in a major city.

It is also possible to see flares from the Iridium satellites.

Every 36 days in a year,Mercury appears at Twilight close to the sun's bright sunset glare.

I do not know where to look for Venus,Mars,Jupiter or Saturn.

Look for Planet X (Nibiru)every 2 to 5 years it will be out of nowhere.

I took a picture while I was coming home from the YMCA kidzone and I could see it.Try looking somewhere behind the moon.It should be looking like a ovalistic sphere that is orangish blueish gray.If that does not work look behind Saturn(It will always be at either one).

I HOPE THIS WILL WORK FOR YOU!

At least some satellites can be seen at night, yes. There are sites dedicated to this, if you want to see one. I've included one such (it turned out at the top in a Google search, I'm not personally endorsing it) in the Related Links section.
