An astrophotographer in the United States has been able to capture the International Space Station transiting by the moon during the day, when it’s nearly impossible to shoot the moon or an object against the overbearing glare of the sun. “The transit against the lit portion of the moon lasted just a few hundredths of a second, shown here in a video slowed down roughly 6x,” he said in the caption. Andrew has a patreon page where he describes himself as an astrophotographer who wants to shoot “our skies in a way that hasn’t been done before”.He hopes his images will inspire people across the world towards astrophotography.His Instagram is full of inquisitive people asking for his help to address their confusion or enrich their knowledge of this field of science. A person asked him how he always knows when will events like this will happen, to which Andrew said he makes extensive plans and “there’s tons of resources out there”.
