I also got a string of Starlink satellites I zoomed in on, too. You'll see them if you want to look. They're quick because I edited them for time.

    This is why i love going outside at night. Ppl call me crazy lol. Im just a night owl. I live in the chicago burbs so i dont see much. But still seen some cool stuff. Never thought id check the "seeing northern lights from home" box in my lifetime but that happened this year. And everyone missed the good part once the skies cleared around 2-3 am. They got 5 minutes at 9 pm (granted it was head on at that point) before clouds set in. i dont think they couldve even handled the beauty lol. Truly serene and almost divine. Seen some nice 'xtra shooty' stars over the years toolol meteors with long tails. Never a fireball tho. I always tell ppl, you never will see one if you dont go outside and just look

      It was over a decade ago, but I still recall stepping out my back door to look at the night sky to observe what the weather was like when I suddenly saw a very bright object coming right for my very eyes. It then flashed very quickly, but also very brightly and fairly close by. It was a shooting star coming right towards me. Not a very big one, but not any marshmallow or cornflake thing either. It's the only shooting star I saw I can still recall all these years later, it was that "memorable".

      My vintage camera is a Canon EOS 600-D that's about 14 years old now and it's falling apart a little bit but it was able to zoom in optically in order to capture a decently-long string of Starlink satellites just after being released, then the next day the same set after having been spread out and were flying by me overhead, one by one, mere seconds apart at an ever-increasing higher orbit seen against the starry sky in about as long a string as this here sentence is, minus oxygen🤣
      Just before that my old camera was actually able to zoom in on the full moon only to suddenly start seeing 12 meteors falling down right past it during the dead of night, and 3 while the pre-dawn sun was only lightening up the atmosphere and full moon(and the 3 meteors) yet it was still totally darker-than-dark where I was standing here in Portland. "The camera's in better shape than I am" is what I'm saying! I bought it at a pawn shop so who knows what hard knocks it's been put through, or travels it's seen. It's still alive though!

      That was just in a dream or an Omni magazine you once read. "The military" isn't in the habit of coordinating over coiled up fireballs OR equipping them with any steel balls. If you're referring to our Space Force, just say so. Poor innocent submariners might not know what you're even talking about for whole long months, too.
