Do you have a link to a higher quality uncompressed copy of your composition? Reddit compression is no bueno. I'd like to try running it through an upscaler to see if I can get it into a printable resolution for hanging on my wall.

What causes the star trails? Is it the rotation of the ISS..?

Nasa has the Tunnelbot concept, if they built it, it could be powered with Kilopower & with such a high profile use case the demand & applications for Kilopower could surge

I can't help but hear the Jaws theme in my head when I watch this

Maybe taping it to the window? There’s no gravity, so it wouldn’t take much

I think what is the craziest thing about this picture is the fact that it was taken by 1 of about 10 (maybe less) possible people on reddit of the hundreds of millions of users that can have this type of experience. That's the cool part for me.

So cassini was tracking Dione, and titan "happened" to be in the background, that's pretty cool. I suppose the cassini team must have planned for this event to capture. I'm guessing most of the movement of titan shown here is actually movement of cassini, being close to Dione for that high res shot means a lot of parallax for far-away titan as cassini moves.

I think you might instead be showing its movement.
