Details:
There was a transit of ISS in front of the Sun today.
The wind and turbulence were both very strong but I managed to capture the tiny ISS at a distance of 1164 km running the camera at 15 frames per second.
ISS passed right in front of AR1164 making it almost indistinguishable from the sunspots.
In the second picture, the crosshairs reveal the position of ISS among the sunspots.
In the third picture I have added all the frames that I captured of the transit.
William-Optics FLT110 with a solar filter and a DMK-41AF02 astro camera with a red filter.
Each frame exposed for 0.1 ms.
