go sit outside for an hour or two after sunset and stare up at the sky

it's busy up there these days

Not really gazing, but I've caught the ISS a few times. Only in the sky for a few minutes, looks like a fast moving star

I was in the mountains back in the spring, gazing at the sky. Then I noticed a bunch of lights all moving in the same direction, maybe a couple dozen, and for a second I thought it might be an invasion or a bunch of missles. Then the lights started going in different directions. I yelled at my friend to come out of the house and see it, and they calmly told me it was a Starlink launch. I confirmed it the next day. But for a second I was actually a little scared.

Does one have to be outside the city so less light pollution? Also can you provide a direction? Like eastern skys, northern skys, etc?

9/3/2025 8:14:20 PM

Most of what I see are going from northwest -> east and 20-40° above horizon. I'm pretty solidly within Raleigh city limits so unless you're in a particularly bright area, should be able to see some stuff

[Edited on September 3, 2025 at 8:47 PM. Reason : have seen 6 in the last 10 minutes. all overhead ]

Here's some space-themed or space-inspired full albums to space out to while looking into space:




It draws from shoegaze, but I think you could easily extend to satgaze.

Possible to take a video or 2? I'm going to make an effort tonight just want to know what to look for. About an hour or so behind you but will look in the sky where you described before(nw->e 20-40 degrees above horizon)

9/12/2025 8:21:58 PM

A phone video of tiny lights in the night sky is going to be a huge fail.

9/13/2025 7:30:36 AM

qntmfred smart as a mug I bet he could figure out a way

9/13/2025 10:22:50 AM

make sure its has you rambling some conspiracy theory in the background of the video

9/13/2025 10:46:46 AM

good idea, know any good ones?

[Edited on September 13, 2025 at 1:15 PM. Reason : one day I'll buy a super expensive camera that will properly capture my evenings]

9/13/2025 1:12:59 PM

The government has been spraying immunosuppressants from air force 1 for years

[Edited on September 21, 2025 at 10:41 AM. Reason : pay no attention to the contrail]
