“ISS Transits Mars” is copyrighted by Tom Glenn. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteThe International Space Station, ISS, is a bright sight as it drifts across the night sky. Catching it crossing in front of the Moon or Sun is rare and takes careful planning. This image captures the ISS crossing in front of Mars, which is even more difficult to photograph. The photographer used online software to time the shot.
