Description

There were at least 3 passes of the ISS over my house in SE London last night (first two 2 with culmination >85Alt) . 
I didn't manage to capture the first pass at 9PM (BST) but noticed a bright object first trailing the ISS and then passing it as it set in the East.   It was the new Boeing Starliner module on a test flight:  NASA press release on docking of Boeing Starliner to ISS - 20 May 2022

I managed to capture videos of the second pass (22:11UT) using a 94mm refractor coupled to an ASI462MC and the TEC250MC with an ASI174MM.   The number of frames on the West side was minimal and not of very good quality.  I managed to get the ISS to show in more frames on the East side and the Boeing Starliner module is obvious.  An animation of 70 frames from the TEC250MC video (playing at 15fps vs 84fps native) also in one of the versions.
