You would never see the ISS if it was REALLY 400KM .away. A passenger airplane looks like a similar tiny dot at only 10km high. It doesnt take very advanced math to figure it out
we can use high school trigonometry to figure out the angular size of the ISS in the night sky. The ISS is approximately 100 metres in length and orbits at 400km (400000 metres) from sea level. if you make two straight lines from the edge of the iss towards one point on the ground, you get a right angle triangle so if we use inverse tan, we can find out how large the iss appears in degrees in the sky tan^-1(opposite/adjacent) = tan^-1(100/400000) = 0.014 degrees the moon is around 0.5 degrees across so the iss appears around 3 percent the width of the full moon, which looks about right.
@@yahtheahmed2236 Youre another math person....how is it that the ISS transits the moon on 0.5 seconds? The moon has a width of 0.5 degrees...that implies the ISS can circle the earth in 360 seconds (1 degree per second), but it actually takes 5400 seconds (90 minutes). That means it should take 7.5 minutes to transit the moon.
I totally agree with you. It doesn’t make sense. The ISS is nearly same size as a large plane, yet we’re able to see it. It’s also traveling at a speed of 18,000mph, so shouldn’t be able to capture or see it.
@@petterlarsson7257 as someone who does astrophotography, please dont get a 5 dollar walmart telescope, these are called 'hobby killers' because they are notorious for not working and made of cheap shitty materials. Instead, get binoculars, a small tabletop dobsonian, or a large 6-8 inch dobsonian telescope. anyways thats besides the topic of the discussion
@@ZackWolfMusic The attitude of denying everything without concrete proof will not get you anywhere. That mentality is extremely bad, and will only lead you to believe completely false statements.

Absolutely blew me away... The detail!!
Absolutely incredible movie and pictures 👍👍👍
😮wow that was amazing shoot. Really fast
What do you use to know when the ISS will cross the moon at your location?
google ISS transit finder
Science, for the win.
Guess I am blind as a bat... didn't see anything after several replays...
you are troll or dumb, not blind, video literally tracks the movement of iss zoomed in

No, not a flat-earther, and I'm good with math. But the math doesn't seem to make sense...try to explain it.

Good Photoshop
yeah how about you go ACTUALLY WATCH IT YOURSELF WITH YOUR OWN EYES AND A 5 DOLLAR WALMART TELESCOPE
@@petterlarsson7257 You don't even need a telescope. The ISS can be seen with the naked eye.
@@hypanusamericanus9058 yeah i know

@@hypanusamericanus9058it can be, but these flat earthwrs will not believe it and just say it's a meteor or something,
This is fake.
Try it yourself then! There are so many transit calculators. Try it, it's fun.
@@silience4095 bull shit
@@ZackWolfMusic Don't call it bullshit till you try it. I've seen a transit with my own eyes, and I'm about to see another one in a few days.

@@silience4095 You can't see how it is fake. That is very sad because it is obvious! So sad you're decived by technology!
