Details:
I was observing the International space station (ISS) passing next to the Jupiter, as the event was predicted to happen near my home location. I've shot the video (ISO 6400, 1/250s) with Sony A7III attached to the Newton 8" using the eyepiece projection. The resulting focal length was around 8 meters. You can also notice the Great Red Spot on the planet's surface. The tiny dot next to Jupiter is its moon Ganymede.
At the beginning, the animation shows this very rare event in a real time, then in a slow motion (30% of the speed) and at the end there is a stack of all the frames into one picture.
