Amazing photo by Thierry Legault. When you consider that the total transit time was .55/sec...

Wow seconded - I tried to photograph the ISS myself (my knowledge and set up are far cruder, to be fair), but at best you could say I had photographed a blurry H shaped, object! It's clear enough through the eyepiece, but catching a good image on camera needs skill, and this one is amazing.

For a while my profile pic has been something similar, but solar rather than lunar.

Meanwhile, I’ve only just seen this Curiosity-filmed eclipse from 2013, it’s Phobos and I quite like it.
