Satellite transit of Moon

Asked by Malcolm henderson

When viewing a transit of the Moon's disc by the ISS it disappeared BEHIND the disc before reappearing! Surely the ISS should have been visible during the whole transit?

Here is a screenshot, also showing date and times ... http://i228.photobucket.com/albums/ee261/webtrekker19/ISS_Transit1.jpg

Many thanks.
