ISS transiting the sun

[rollmebackagain]

I've been wanting this shot for ages and I finally managed to figure out a time and place with clear skies that I could get to with my telescope to take it.

Here's a stacked series from yesterday with the ISS transiting the sun!

Looks like this IIS transit was a fair way distant (~1000km? ) but
always great to capture :thumbsup:

Gee, the sun makes the ISS look very small and insignificant in the scheme of things.

[batema]

Fantastic work.

[redbeard]

Very impressed, great work!

Do you know the time frame ish that the ISS was in front of the sun? 1 sec? less/more? Frame rate?

Cheers,

Damien.

Nice! I've tried to get a shot like this a few times but it's such a time sensitive and "blind" event that it's very difficult to capture. Well done!

Awesome! Tremendous dedication and work!! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

That's a great image, very sharp! How long were your exposures? I presume pretty short to get each ISS frame so crisp?

:) Great catch. :)
Perseverance certainly pays off.
