International Space Station over Houston Symphony

Jen and I watched the Houston Symphony at Miller Outdoor Theatre last night. Diego Matheuz conducted Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 4 and Mozart’s "Overture to The Marriage of Figaro."

To our delight, the International Space Station flew overhead in the middle of the performance. What a treat! It was a great pass. The ISS flew almost directly overhead and was shockingly bright.

The ISS flies overhead quite often, like clockwork. Following webpage has details:

This shot won the Best Venue awarrd in the Houston Symphony’s "Oh Snap Photo Contest."
