| Name | Jeff W |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I did not witness it as I was under a tent when the camera (Timelapse) captured it (28mm lens, full frame sensor). I photograph the night sky often, and I have never captured anything even remotely this bright (I have captured many persistent trains). It left NO PERSISTENT TRAIN, absolutely nothing on the next frame, though I only caught the first ~half. Two cameras captured it on frames within 20 sec of each other (though other camera only caught beginning). Processing for the dark foreground, the frame shows directional light on Gothic Mtn with a greenish cast (compared to the next frame). I also overlaid this image onto a panoramic foreground to assess trajectory with more 'known' foreground elements outside the frame. |
