Starting end of this week the Sun will be almost
in the perpendicular plane to the orbit of the ISS.
(best on Sunday, May 15)

The astronauts on the ISS will be seeing the sun 24/24 hours a day,
and watchers on Earth will be able to see the ISS
at all times of the night. (so also at midnight)

In many places you will be able to see five passes of the ISS
in a single night.
Look it up for your location, in the usual guides, for example:
<https://spotthestation.nasa.gov/>

A friendly hint for our dear denialists:
for best viewing, dig a hole in the sand to put your head in,

Jan

to see the ISS passing at about midnight?

And the clocks of GPS will indicate t'=t, just like
all serious clocks always did. Any of you denialists
is going to look at them?
