Explanation:
Still bathed in sunlight, the
International Space Station tracked
through night skies above
Hombressen, Germany on May 12.
From a range of at least 360 kilometers, astronomer Dirk
Ewers was able to record an impressively
sharp video sequence
of the passage with a small telescope, using some of
the individual frames to construct this composite image.
Sporting solar arrays,
the station's integrated truss structure
is nearly 90 meters long.
The ATV Jules Verne is docked with the
station, while the space station itself is orbiting at aproximately
27,800 kilometers per hour (17,200 mph).
A complete video sequence is available as a 1 megabyte
mpeg file or
avi file.
