ISS with newly installed Roll-Out Solar Arrays

Acquisition type: Lucky imaging

Description

Here's an image with the ISS from July 30, where we can see the 1st batch of the new solar arrays have been installed at the end of June.

Seeing was poor to average, and couldn't really ask for more, since the outside temperature was running as high as 33 degrees Celsius (91 F). But mosquitos didn't miss an opportunity to swirl around me like the asteroid belt!

The final image is a stack of roughly 90 frames scaled at 150%
Taken at 18:55 UT, exposure 0.5ms, gain 250

Last but not least, this wouldn't have been made possible without my father's help, where he pushed the buttons while I was snipering the ISS with our 8" Dob.
