Hey All,

Was out photographing the Star Link flyover Saturday night, and put together a little animated gif here:

Though I noticed a "blip" on the 3rd last frame, near top center, zoomed in and marked versions below, anyone know what it might be?

These were all 20 second subs, so feel it's not a moving object, more a flash??? YOu can see my hot pixels, no clean up or post done to these images, all straight JPG from camera (forgot to switch to RAW).

Hot pixels on your camera? There's a few there. Perhaps a transient one?

Mmmm ... I agree I have many hot pixels, usually they are single colour, just got excited that this one was in all channels. Ok, so not a nova/UFO?


Thanks for checking!

Good pickup in a widefield, here's one of my mystery object.
