For the first time, an astronaut with months of experience in space will compare that time to life underwater. Peggy Whitson, an International Space Station veteran, is commanding a NASA crew spending two weeks living on the ocean floor.....

Following on from my recent capture of ISS crossing the Moon in daylight (June 8 ) , yesterday I made a round trip of 40 miles to get onto the centre line of a solar transit.

The results can be seen on my website

Simply follow the "ISS Lunar and Solar transit" link

At the time of the transit , ISS was about 500 km downrange , and some detail is visible.
