ESPD Media of the Month: December 2020

Posted By Tiago Pereira, Sunday 13 December 2020

We are pleased to announce that the winner of the ESPD Media of the Month contest for December is Sabrina Bechet (Royal Observatory of Belgium), with the following image of an ISS solar transit:

Description: On June the 6th at 14:02:16 UTC, the USET solar telescopes (USET: Uccle Solar Equatorial Table) of the Royal Observatory of Belgium (ROB) imaged a transit of the International Space Station (ISS). In this picture, the ISS appears as three successive black structures taken at around 250 milliseconds interval each. The striking feature of the ISS -its large solar panels- are nicely resolved with the white-light telescope at ROB. On the left side of the solar disk, one can see a sunspot group. While being of medium size, it is one of the first groups of the solar cycle 25.
