Small telescope in Oxford, UK catches stranded astronauts on spacewalk outside of ISS

Details:

Astronauts in EVA Imaged from the Ground Suni Williams can be seen at the end of the robotic arm, while Butch Wilmore was working next to the Quest airlock platform in the shadow of the station, making him unfortunately not visible in the picture. This day, Suni broke a new record for time spent in EVA, now she’s also the first female astronaut to be photographed from the ground during a spacewalk . Congratulations Suni! I was very lucky to capture this event under clear skies with my telescope from my hometown, it was a fantastic moment. The pictures were taken with my C11 Edge HD on an EQ6R-Pro mount, using a 2x Barlow and a 664MC camera. The acquisition was done in HDR using SharpCap, and the ISS tracking using SkyTrack. The image processing was carried out using Autostakkert, PIPP, PixInsight, and Photoshop.
