HA doesn't quite give ISS predictions for 1st Dec yet, however it is possible that during the Venus Occultation, or rather shortly after it, not only will it be possible to see the three brightest objects in the night sky in close proximity, but the fourth brightest as the ISS now is will make a fleeting pass, though of course it won't be that bright near the SW horizon as we'll be looking at the dark side of it, but will be much brighter as it rises up.
