The ISS and the earth below it...

Seeker

Well then, that would be during a solar eclipse.  The moon casts a shadow on earth during a solar eclipse.  On a lunar eclipse, the earth casts a shadow on the moon.

If you see my last post I already corrected that, Ama  :P

I too figured it must be a solar eclipse.  What else could it be, really?  A giant round thing big enough to cast a shadow across all of Earth surely wouldn't have gone unnoticed to the people on the ground even despite 98% of the population having their head bent down into their creepy zombie phone world.

What exactly is the "Earth shadow" that the ISS crosses? Do you have a photo?
It's exactly what the name suggests, the shadow projected by the Earth, the same shadow that creates Lunar eclipses.

If that is the Earth's shadow, what is it being cast upon?
The camera, specially the lens.

Odd that this phenom has never been discussed on the net as far as I can find.

Perhaps you might be so good as to back up your claim with facts as opposed to your  (learned) opinion.
Well, these are obvious, but here they are:
Opaque objects project shadows;
The Earth is an opaque object that projects shadows;
The length of the Earth's shadow is enough to reach the Moon and created Lunar eclipses;
The ISS orbits the Earth, so it passes the shadow area every 90 minutes or so.

From the internet:
"It's a motorized circular light filter that moves in and out of position in front of the camera lens depending on whether the cameras will be pointing towards the general direction of the sun.  The cameras are equipped with several of these "stackable" filters so you don't get the image completely blown out by light, either directly from the sun or the light reflected off of Earth's surface/atmosphere.  I know because the company I work for developed them."

And yet, this phenom has never been documented in 6 years and 140 days?

Why has this not been documented before this?

It's on you, ArMaP. Let's see the photos of past phenomes.

Thank you.



When you can see Earth's Shadow
 

Earth’s shadow and full moon from EarthSky Facebook friend Cattleya Flores Viray in San Diego.

See Earth’s shadow any evening, ascending in the east. You can see Earth’s shadow any clear evening ascending in the eastern sky. The shadow is a deep blue-grey, and it’s darker than the blue of the twilight sky. The pink band above the shadow is called the Belt of Venus.

Notice: Earth’s shadow ascends in the east at the same rate that the sun is setting below the western horizon.

The shadow of the Earth is big. You might have to turn your head to see the whole thing. And, just so you’ll recognize it more easily, remember that the shadow is curved, in just the same way that the whole Earth is curved.
 

Earth’s shadow on the moon. April 14, 2014 eclipse of the moon by eclipse master Fred Espenak.

See Earth’s shadow during an eclipse of the moon. Earth’s shadow extends into space so far that it can touch the moon. That’s what a lunar eclipse is. It’s the moon within Earth’s shadow.

When the sun, the Earth and the moon are aligned in space (nearly or perfectly), with the Earth in between the sun and moon, then Earth’s shadow falls on the moon’s face. Then people on Earth see the shadow gradually turn a bright full moon dark in an eclipse of the moon.

As seen from Earth’s surface, there are typically two or more lunar eclipses every year. Some are total, some are partial, some are a subtle kind of eclipse known as penumbral.

During a lunar eclipse, a very small amount of light from the sun filters through Earth’s atmosphere onto Earth’s shadow on the moon. It’s why – at the middle part of a total lunar eclipse – the shadow on the moon looks reddish.

Night is a shadow. The fact is that night on Earth or any other world is a shadow. When night falls, you’re standing within the shadow of Earth.

My question is why is not the shadow 'as dense' when it crosses the ISS?

And ArMaP, you are inferring that this phenom occurs every 90 minutes?

Interesting.

Why has this phenom not been reported before if it happens every 90 minutes?

I will let you decide if this is a planet, a moon, or something else, one thing is for certain it is big and tells us we do not know what is unfolding up above us.

Sorry, I don't understand where did you get the 6 years and 140 days from. ???

I don't have the slightest idea, maybe it was but we're not aware of that.

You can also look for it, if you're interested. :)

PS: I have been wanting to say that I should have been clearer. As we can see the ISS under strong light it's obvious that it's not in the shadow, so it cannot be the Earth's shadow on the ISS, I don't know how I missed that the first time I watched the video. What it looked to me that second time was that there was a shadow being projected on the camera lens, and as the ISS moves in relation to the Sun the shadow also moves, creating that effect.

PPS: the filter explanation makes sense.

See my previous post. :)

The ISS passes the Earth's shadow every 90 minutes.

That's a question I cannot answer, as I don't have any way of knowing why other people didn't do some thing.
