Details:
On 2017 April 23, at around 09:50:35 EDT the International Space Station (ISS) flew right in front of the Sun as seen from Norton (MA). While regular ISS passes are quite common, flying right in front of the Sun or Moon is relatively rare and happens once every few months or so. The weather was predicted to be clear this morning, so we decided to try to take a video of this event.
