Tonight the ISS was very bright and probably one of the longest viewings...almost 6 minutes. Traveling at 17,500mph, I was able to capture it, but the detail isn't where I would like to see it. The first picture is what it looks like in a normal capture and the inset picture is a blow up of the original but cropped tighter.
The next picture is a 10 second capture, showing the ISS moving off of the picture.
The next picture is looking south at Orion. The three star belt is visible in the center of the picture.
One more of Orion:
And the last picture for tonight is a picture of the North star. What is unique about this picture is it is a 30 second capture facing north. The only star visible to the eye was the north star which is about an inch and a half just above the point of the house. If you double click on the image you can see all of the other stars.
