My wonderful Starry Night program alerted me to a brilliant high pass of ISS. It also put the setting ISS about 12 deg from the Moon. Was interested in whether or not I could see both, the Moon being so bright. To my delight, not only could I see both but I watched ISS disappear as it went into the Earth's shadow, JUST as it approached the altitude of the Moon. All of a sudden, I saw, in my mind, the Earth, Full Moon, Sun and ISS like I had spun a little mental orrery. What a night! (Seriously, is there something wrong with me?)
