Comet Neowise and ISS

Unread post by menardre »

Last week not only was Comet Neowise below the Big Dipper, but the ISS was traveling under the Big Dipper between 9:20 and 9:30.

I was able to catch both. You can see the streak of the ISS below the comet. This was a 5 second exposure F5.6 ISO 1000 24mm using Nikon D750 camera on a tripod.
