| Description |
My first field use of the 8" Celestron scope that I intend to use for the eclipse resulted in this: a solar transit of the International Space Station, seen here from Sebastian, Florida. at 5:10 pm on Thursday, August 3, 2017. I didn't have much time to set get set up, particularly because the rain was coming down in buckets until just about 15 minutes before the transit occurred. But the real thing I learned is quite obvious: I've got too much zoom. Even with a full-frame camera, I can't get the full face of the Sun in the frame. Specs: ISO640, 1/2000 exposure time, shot at 29 fps using a Canon 5D4. 24 frames extracted and combined in Photoshop, with initial edits done in Lightroom. Transit details, with thanks again to transit-finder.com for the accurate prediction: Thursday 2017-08-03 17:10:39.54 • Solar transit ISS angular size: 44.09″; distance: 626.73 km Angular separation: 0.5′; azimuth: 270.8°; altitude: 38.0° Center line distance: 0.11 km; visibility path width: 7.68 km Transit duration: 0.90 s; transit chord length: 31.5′ R.A.: 08h 56m; Dec: +17° 16′; parallactic angle: -53.1° ISS velocity: 34.8 ′/s (angular); 6.35 km/s (transverse) ISS velocity: -3.76 km/s (radial); 7.38 km/s (total); Direction of motion relative to zenith: -42.4° Sun angular size: 31.5′; 42.9 times larger than the ISS (Photo by Michael Seeley) |
