The Space Station!. Single exposure about 55s or so I think.
I always go here to check when things are going over:

Wow, Matt... the space station alone is a feat, but throwing a viewer into the pic is a technical triumph. Well done!

From the other night. I was going to attempt star trails and shot this while waiting.

That's gorgeous!

I think we're going to have a "Blue Moon" this Friday...who's going to be shooting it?

Those are very nice moon shots, and a great job of capturing Jupiter and the moons without a telescope!

I thought I'd share this photo from the other side of the world. This is last December's total lunar eclipse as it rose over Bangkok. This is a composite of 104 2-minute exposures showing the entire 3-1/2 hours of the eclipse. You can see the narrow red area at totality. And the light streak rising to the right of the moon is Jupiter.
