ISS Mondtransit
ist schwieriger zu filmen, als man denkt:
I had been planning to capture this shot for nearly a month. I use the website transit-finder.com to check to see if the station intersects the sun or moon anywhere near me, and this one showed up originally as a 45 minute drive from my house. Unfortunately, the station ended up doing a burn a few days ago which changed its telemetry, and ended up putting the path of the transit over a hundred miles away. I decided to proceed anyway, even though it meant preventing me from getting any sleep (the transit was at 5:15am yesterday morning). Thankfully the conditions were good and the shot ended up being wonderful.
This was captured with a c11 telescope, and I used two cameras to capture it. an asi174mm and a sony a7ii (for the color on the moon's surface). The camera I used operated at 155 images per second to capture the station, and it was only in the field of view for about a quarter second.
This was a close crop of the full size image, which you can find here: https://twitter.com/AJamesMcCarthy/status/1539319285117374465?s=20&t=2CeDu2GyOqznqSRPAlKqQA
