8/17/2025 ISS Transits the Moon

Thanks to my friend, Bo Edwards, I was in position to shoot the ISS passing in front of the Moon this morning at 5:43 in Perryville. I used a 127mm Maksutov telescope and my Canon T8i and shot video. The transit took only 0.66 seconds to happen but we could see it coming and knew when to start the cameras. It was moving fast and my stills show two parallel streaks in each frame. On the way home, I stopped at Lake Maumelle to watch the sunrise. It was the same very hazy promising to be very hot conditions we seen for a while.
