Details:
On Friday 6th December Jupiter was approaching “opposition” and closest to Earth. The accompanying rare catch of four images of the ISS passing above Jupiter between 7.05 and 7.06 pm were taken looking at a low angle towards the NNE from behind some plants in my back garden. The sightings of the ISS at 10 degrees above NNE at that time can be confirmed at https://spotthestation.nasa.gov/sightings/view.cfm?country=Zimbabwe®ion=None&city=Harare.Camera:hand-held Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS40 in sunset mode.
