Details:
Just moved into my dorm at PSU and there was an ISS solar transit! First time I've ever gotten an image of one. AR 2403 makes a great backdrop as well. Got the images with 4" apo at 714mm, Lunt wedge, and DMK 41.

How high was the Sun at the time of this ISS solar transit? I imaged a low 24° ISS solar transit that did not show this kind of detail. I am happy for you. I hope the get a good ISS solar transit the I can be happy with. You did GOOD! http://spaceweathergallery.com/indiv_upload.php?upload_id=115679

The sun was near the apex of its trajectory since the transit occurred at 1:13 PM EDT. The higher the sun during transit, the larger the station appears. This one was a full arcminute wide!
