AMAZING !!!!

I saw my first Iridum Flare last night - I actually saw 2.

Checked both heavens-above and CalSKY and both were spot on.

Couldn't believe how easy it was to find and see at -5 and -4.8 mag.

I'm gob-smacked that they have been occurring for many years and I'm only just finding out about them through this new hobby that I've picked up.

Here's to many more
