Space Station from the 30-4-11 was created by carlobeirnes
Hi All,
Here is an image of the International Space Station from the 30-4-11. I really like the angle on this image as it allows you to see each of the modules. I labelled all the major parts on the image for handiness.
The image taken from Balbriggan Co Dublin. It was captured using satellite Tracker software and a celestron C14 at f11 3910mm focal length with a Lumenera 2.0 mono camera at 30fps on an AP1200 mount. The image is 6 frames stacked manually in registax V4 and some processing was done using Photoshop CS3.
PS,
I just did a long interview with the Sun News paper about the ISS. There running an article in tomorrow's newspaper about my images on the space station. Article will be out on 3-5-11 newspaper

Thanks for the comments lads. The article made it into the Sun news paper today I was surprised it was even picked up by the press to be honest. At the resolution I can get down to it would be great to image the Shuttle & ISS.together. The hard part is with such a narrow FOV is getting and keeping it on the screen is a job in it's self.
