Caught this in 2017 but did not know it was on the image set until quite some time after that.
captured with my Nikon D90 on a tripod.
I hope I have not overcooked the data trying the bring up the MW.
If I remember correctly this was about 8 seconds with an 18 mm lens.
I have cropped it a bit.
Then again....maybe its an airplane. :-)
Cheers !

Re: ISS in the Milky Way
Looks ISS -like to me. I am also interested in what caused that horizontal set of dashes a bit below the ISS . Nice catch!

{Something} in the Milky Way [Cue stereo-typical Sci-Fi mystery Music]
