Hey, wait a minute. If the ISS is so far away from the moon, why does it’s shadow appear sharp and clear on the moon? Something isn’t right.

Look at the sun angle (to the viewers right) and the shadows in the craters.
No way the ISS’s shadow could a be directly below the ISS.

It’s not a shadow but darker parts of the ISS. The resolution looks right for that size (8”, prolly f8)telescope and I think it is a really good shot.
