So it is impossible to see a sunlit > ISS BEFORE the sun. Why? The situation is the same as a transit of mercure or venus before the sun, a dark silhouette should be observable if no other constraints like angular speed, angular extension or inadequate equipment make it impossible. There were several attempts of members of this list to view such an event.
