The resolution needed to capture such a picture of the ISS in detail should be quite high right? Whoa!

I have no vocabulary describing such a fantastic picture..

Wow. Impressive

It is real sharp picture compared to many of the pictures taken by amateur telescopes. Is that thing on the left the space shuttle? It seems to have the shape of it from the side view.

Yes it is!

Apparently it was taken with a 150mm takahashi refractor using Baadar film.
