some guy Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Not sure what it was. It looked like a star - small and bright but moving across the sky at considerable speed. I don't think it was a plane as it appeared to look very high up. Pretty sure it wasn't a shooting star either. Could it have been a satellite?
nubile Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Could it have been a satellite? Could have been, though hard to say without actually seeing it yourself.

nubile Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 There was an Irridium flare at 17.13, though it was only magnitude -1, which isn't that bright, though well visible to the human eye.
Lewis Pyneweck Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 Sounds like the International Space Station
