First Attempt To Photograph The International Space Station

DSCF2113

The space station is an easy target to find with the naked eye if you know where to look, but since it moves so quickly across the sky it's hard to see in a telescope. The simplest first attempt was to take a long exposure as it went overhead. It's just a streak across the sky, but that's a full blown space ship!

If you would like to see the space station for yourself check out heavens-above, enter your location, and find a good time!
