Astronomy Fact
If you could travel at the speed of light (186,000 miles per second) it would take 100,000 years to cross our galaxy!
Satellite Locations
Satellite Ground Trace courtesy: Heavens-Above.com
Bright Satellite List for your location.
Notes about viewing ESVs:
When using lookangles, choose passes with high magnitudes; less than 6.0. ("Looks" are local time.)
Best viewing is when ESV is in Earth's penumbra; on map-solid line during night.
Dotted line on map denotes ESV is dark, in Earth's umbra (shadow).
Objects in orbit have to maintain a speed of at least 17,500mph, therefore ESVs traverse the sky noticeably different than aircraft.
ESVs appearing to blink are either tumbling rocket bodies, or spinning payloads with deployed solar arrays.
High-Eccentricity objects have a more ellongated orbit. Ground trace looks like a backwards C.
Regression-Ground traces will move West with each orbit due to Earth's rotation.
Meteor impact over Silkeborg at 30. march 2014
Sunday at 30. March 2014 a Meteor Impact probably occured some place in Mid Jutland. My webcam caught the "glimp" as you can see here. (A big thank you goes to Kurt B. Sørensen, he told me that my webcam had caught the impact)For additional information see stjerneskud.dk
I have sent my information to stjerneskud.dk together with my loaction and the angle my webcam is looking - hopefully the can use the information.

Elipse at 20. March 2015
In Denmark we experience up to 85% elicpse. Unfortunately it was cloudy i almost all of Denmark.My solarsensor could easy meassure the falling sunlight - see the graph at the gallerypage.
The satellite pictures is made by Sytze (Thank you very much) from WeerstationGrou in Holland. Sytze has his own satellite dish, where he can recieve pictures from EUMETSAT.
