Hi all, this is a set of pics showing my view of the ISS passing across the face of the sun. I took it yesterday at North Canyon Park, when Kurt, Siegfried, George and Brent were also observing the passage. The first view is Kurt's estimate of where he saw the crossing, his diagram overlying a view of the sun provided by CalSky for that time and location. The next is my overview image, cropped and rotated so that the sunspots are oriented the same as in the view Kurt provided. The third is a blow-up of the ISS portion of my photo. Adding to the proof, no sunspot shows up at that place in the SOHO image of the sun at that time, and that spot doesn't show up in any of my other views taken at the time. Best wishes, Joe First image: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=5737 Second: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=5740 Third: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=5743
I meant to say my overall view, not my overview. -- Joe On Saturday, October 19, 2013 2:05 PM, Joe Bauman <josephmbauman@yahoo.com> wrote: Hi all, this is a set of pics showing my view of the ISS passing across the face of the sun.
