Before the excitement of the Blood Moon lunar eclipse began, the International Space Station passed right over my backyard in Austin, TX last night.

Below is a composite of 74 images of the space station, taken as it passed straight overhead from the SW to the NE at 8:48 PM CDT.

Below are some timelapses created from the still frames. The first one is about 4x the speed of the actual pass.

And I’m not sure how much faster this one I created in QuickTime is, but is it… fast.
