This morning I was able to download images from the ISS while visual seeing the ISS from my backgarden. Really cool!
I'm using websdr located in Nurnberg (Germany) to connect with the ISS. The picture of the ISS (and Envisat) is taken above my location.
Background :
An ARISS Slow Scan TV (SSTV) event is scheduled from the International Space Station (ISS) for late December. This will be a special SSTV event to celebrate the 20th anniversary of ARISS operations on the ISS. The event is scheduled to begin on December 24 and continue through December 31. Details to follow later. Dates are subject to change due to ISS operational adjustments.
Times for the event appear to have the activity being setup and starting after 16:40 UTC on December 24 and running continuously until 18:15 UTC on December 31.
