The moon spans ~30 arc minutes.
From the ground the ISS solar array spans ~0.75 arc minutes = arctan(73m/335km)

One question: "Is that THE satellite that was shot down?" and the autor said: "I'm afraid not, it's just an artistic PS composition".

Image taken on 2008 Feb 20 - http://www.flickr.com/photo_exif.gne?id=2281596855. Certainly doesn't look like the ISS. Maybe a Progress???
