Last august I had the chance to see the International Space Station passing in front of the moon right from my home.
The ISS is clearly visible many nights, and depending on the user position on Earth, it might align with some object in the sky.

These days I was reorganizing my gallery, and I found the original video.
So, after reprocessing it a while, I decided to republish it.

The ISS is really fast: the video is slightly slowed down. I remember that during the transit I couldn’t see the station, and I waited a few minutes because I couldn’t know if the transit already happened or not: it was still daylight, and in the original frames is barely visible.
Only after watching the video I could finally notice that tiny dot passing right in front of the moon.

ISS transits over the Moon.

I shot this with my 130mm F/5 telescope, to be sure to have a field wide enough to not miss the space station.

It was still daylight, with the moon very low in altitude.

Also, I had to track the moon manually, since this telescope has a dobsonian mount.

For this shot, I used my old Celestron Astromaster 130, in an alt-azimuth mount, and my QHY5L-IIm as shooting camera. I had to try following manually the moon, since I obviously had no motorized tracking.
I had to use the 130mm scope instead of my main 8″ scope because of the shorter focal length: this way I could shoot almost the whole moon, so I could be sure that I didn’t miss the ISS.
