Re: ISS across the Moon, and a question

Dang...I was hoping the photo was the ISS over the Moon. Cool shot anyway!

Have any astronomy buffs worked out possible ISS occultations of specific major stars and planets? This would have to be done for very precise locations. A very short distance away on the Earth's surface and it wouldn't happen.

With GPS locaters and computers, could someone meet this challenge?

Best way to photograph something like that on a still plate might be a locked-off camera so the star shows as a streak on the film. A break in the streak would be the occultation. Or maybe a bird...
