Space Station Solar Eclipse Transit

French astrophotographer Thierry Legault positioned himself and his gear in Oman for a fantastic shot of the International Space Station against the solar disk during a partial eclipse on January 4. See the picture and brief remarks by Legault at Spaceweather.com or Google the key words to see where else it’s in evidence on the Web.

By coincidence, ISS resembles a certain prop from STAR WARS.
