This is a manipulated video, but still cool.
-
If this was shot at a high frame rate, then how come the shuttle seems to cover about equal distance than the both combined as one system moving? That would mean the shuttle is moving 17,000mph towards the ISS. Your thoughts......

@amedlin72 He shot this at a very high frame rate (1000fps) and it was played back at 24 frames per second.

o_O

I thought it took the ISS only about 1 second to transit the sun. Could someone please explain how such a long video could be captured of the ISS in front of the sun? Maybe it was taken when the sun was very low to the horizon where the orbit is oblique to the camera direction?

I love how some people in the comment section can't grasp the concept of satellites orbiting Earth... Oh well, this is YouTube, whatta u expct? Really cool footage none the less. Did you shoot it?

@manonfireb4u nah, expect u to believe this was shot at a really fast frame rate.

I am with a PD that has payloads on the ISS, we do a lot of things concerning it's orbit and all that good stuff. It orbits at about 17,250 mph. The sun or the moon either one you choose takes about 1 degree out of the 180 degree visible horizon (approximate). It orbits at about 300km (depending on ground location), or a little over 200 miles. Doing a little math, a transit takes less than a second as seen from Earth... this footage is manipulated, but still cool nonetheless.

@aerowenn unless this video was shot at at 1000 frames a second and played back at 24... but it wasn't. yes... it's a post-processed image. thanks for the comment!
