目ん玉飛び出るというか、開いた口が塞がらないというか。
視聴者の方などによると、中国の人工衛星, "OBJECT K" (ID 48257)らしいそうです。私はこの辺の知識がないのですいません。

23：48：13ケックドームに向かっていい流星が流れていたのに　🛰に全部持って行かれちゃった感じですね😅

[@subarutel_starcamadmin]

確かに・・・自分もアクセント位にしか見てなかった😑

[@koruri0333]

ズームするとすごい迫力ですねー👀‼
０:50あたりからケック２の左に流星かと思いきや・・・反射なのかな？
すごい明るさだったのですねー。
すばる-朝日星空カメラ以外で映っているのが見つけられないのですが
ヒロやハワイ島の他の地域では見られなかったのでしょうか？

That is crazy that looks like a UFO or something I didn't know if meteorites or whatever could do that that long when I zoomed in it looked like a spacecraft or something man this is phenomenal footage! I love this channel it always has awesome mysterious things thank you so much

[@Q1776Q]

It IS a spacecraft reentering the atmosphere.

@@Q1776Q And at 1:33 there is a natural meteor that burns out quickly as they usually do. The satellite debris is doing 7 km/s almost perfectly horizontal, while meteors are typically more than 20 km/s and anything from 0 to 90, average 45 degrees. They burn up fast and often burst with a bright flash, unlike the long, slow burn of manmade stuff.

I just never seen anything like it doesn't make sense that doesn't look natural

It looks like AI artificial...
