I’m ready. The spy satellite comes over right before, but at it’s magnitude I’d have to be in the mountains to see it.

Hey remember seeing the satellites passing 20 yrs ago when I lived in Cali. (I think that is what they were, size of a big star traveling in at a slow speed in a direct path?)

Well the other night I was looking up at sky (here in the PNW/Oregon Coast) and saw a light the size of a big star moving along at a slow (not like a shooting star) pace heading SE (I think).

Do you think that could have been a satellite?

I saw the Feb 15 pass. But the bright moon is really causing problems for this sat. Also really fast you have to pick it up right away or you’ll miss it. Saw the ISS right after the end of US 193 viewing window in my area.
