Not sure if this has been posted already, but have a look at the APOD.

Shuttle and ISS silhouetted against the sun.

Not sure how you calculate this will occur, but fascinating nonetheless.

Wow....That is amazing!!!... Im guessing it would take a fair bit of precise timing, not to mention a hell of a lot of luck....
