The other time me and my dad took some photos of the ISS is already 10 years ago (July 2016). This might be a nice moment to re-post that (given that I posted that on Twitter, back in the day, and thus would otherwise probably be lost in the mists of time/the internet...). Different set-up, different location of the ISS in the sky, different goal (capture some detail versus capture transit), fun regardless!

Had some fun taking pictures with my dad of the ISS transit in front of the Moon tonight. (The ISS being the only satellite that still makes me happy when I can actually see it with my own eyes---I'd rather not see any satellite swarms.) Thanks to @pfsmet for pointing out that I could take these photos from the comfort of my garden in Lebbeke tonight! (Details of the photos at the end of the alt text) #ISS

Some pictures of the aurora / northern lights above Belgium around 23h-23h30. Seems like I was just too late for the most impressive part, but it was very impressive show nonetheless! (The most impressive picture aurora-wise was sadly when I hadn't yet taken my tripod yet) #northernLights #Aurora #AuroraBorealis #Belgium

What an incredible show, aurora borealis visible from Lebbeke, Belgium. Never thought I'd see it, let alone from my back yard. Once in a lifetime experience... While the colours and fine details weren't visible with the naked eye, the banded structure definitely was. #Aurora #AuroraBorealis #Belgium #NorthernLights
