Iridium #49
Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009
Call me stubborn, intrepid, or just plain hardheaded…but lucky!
There was a predicted minus 8 Iridium satellite flare tonight and in between rainclouds, I somehow managed to capture it flaring through the clouds at exactly 10:16:39 PM.
The star at the lower left of the flare is Vega-which I could not see while aiming the camera.
