APOD 4.6

The white looking ant on the left side of the moon is the International Space Station. Although it looks like the image was exposed for a long time, this was only exposed 1/1000 of a second. It is mind blowing how technology allows us to use precise timing to take this photograph. We can also see circular craters, highlands, and marias. If you wish to see the ISS, you can go online and check out when it will be near your area.
