ISS Solar Transit over Portugal




ISS over the Sun, in Pragal, Almada, Portugal.The data were obtained through the Calsky. To shoot this pictures i used an telescope Meade ETX90 with my Canon 400D in order focus and a Baader solar filter(not H-Alfa). I set the machine to take 3 images per second at ISO200 1/500s at F-13.8(this is the telescope F-). I take this pictures in 03-08-08 between 16h18m19s and 16h18m20s.

ISS Info: Transit duration=0.64s Angular diameter=41.5" size=73.0m x 44.5m x 27.5m Distance=445.9 km In a clock-face concept, the satellite will seem to move toward 0:43 Angular Velocity=46.6'/s Ground speed=7.679 km/s width=5.3 km max. duration=0.7s.
