ISS Transits Observed over Plant City, Florida

The viewing conditions in high humidity Florida were pretty good this morning - for viewing the ISS passage is it passed from NW to NE to SE.  Maximum was at 05:55 at 88 degrees




This morning there was a bright passage of the International Space Station which I was able to photograph and capture with video.



Here is a still shot (20 sec exposure) as it passes to the left of Orion
