Space Station and Spotty Sun

On August 13th, 2025, the clear skies offered me another successful photography of the International Space Station transit in front of the Sun. Taken from Habřinka (by Lázně Bohdaneč), Czech Republic, as a sequence on a 10-inch Dobsonian Telescope, when ISS was about 507,96 km far from me and the whole transit took only 0.65 seconds. It was the shortest transit of ISS I ever photographed! And one of the most beautiful because se of the lots of sunspots in the solar photosphere. Such a lucky moment!

Used Nikon Z6II, 10-inch Dobsonian Telescope (AstroSolar Baader folia), f5, ISO 400, 1/8000s exposures.
