David Le Conte, from the astronomy section of La Societe Guernesiaise, said it was the first time such an event had been captured in Guernsey, as far as he was aware.
The image was captured on Saturday at La Societe's observatory, and five images were taken with a 5-inch Takahashi refracting telescope, equipped with a special solar filter, and using a Canon 600D camera.
They were processed and stacked by astronomy section member Jean Dean, who also enlarged one of the images to show the detail of the Space Station
The above picture is a montage of the five images.
