ISS goes from right to left and the last image is in the prom. The images of ISS are only 5, that's what Canon 20D can do.

I had no idea it was going to cross and it looked just like a Tie Fighter from Star Wars zipping across the surface. I was shocked at first not knowing what it was. I did a little posting, searching and found some pic's that looked just like what I saw.
