ISS crossed moon tonite 21.37 pm

[Telescope40]

Hi All. Outside a few mins ago doing a bit of lunar with my refractor. Pretty nice night here TBH

Had noticed on heavens above website the ISS looking to scoot by very close to Mr Lunar.

Was it correct.

32mm EP - could see solar array with no issues at all. Quickly turned off my CG5 and attempted to track with same EP. Only managed to catch it again.

Prob tracked for another 10 seconds. Well chuffed.

Now that is something I would like to see myself!

Lucky you!

Aghhh! I had been out but had popped in for food! Mind you I probably was not on the transit line. Well done. Would have been great to see that.

From where I was it just missed the moon, passing underneath it. I did manage to track it across the sky, but once it reaches its apparent top speed its quite hard to see much detail. Would love to see it transit the moon, very jealous of anyone who see's that.
