This was the second sighting, or fly over, for the ISS this morning with the first one around 4:30 am. The path that one followed was too low for me to see it, however this one lasted for about 6 minutes from 6:46 am – 6:52 am, and its path took it to an altitude of 85 degrees, or nearly straight up. It passed close by the star Capella in Auriga the Charioteer as it reached its greatest altitude heading for the southeast horizon. Along the way, as this graphic shows, the ISS went between the stars marking the Gemini Twins heads, Castor and Pollux and the planet Jupiter.

ISS and Moon
The slideshow below is a series of pictures taken as fast as I could click the shutter release. Each exposure is at the same settings as the cropped picture of the ISS and Moon. In each of the pictures the ISS appears as the moving small dashed line.
