Walker570 Posted July 11, 2020 Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 Anyone seen it yet? We have a few clear skies this next week so it would be good to see it before it vanishes for another millenia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_b_wales Posted July 11, 2020 Report Share Posted July 11, 2020 (edited) There's been a couple of photo's of it on a local (south Wales) Facebook page. I'm hoping to see/photograph it this coming week. Failing that, I'll check it out again in 6,800 years from now.

JohnfromUK Posted July 12, 2020 Report Share Posted July 12, 2020 Someone in the next village took some long exposure photos on Saturday morning early (01:30) and they came out showing it very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonker Posted July 12, 2020 Report Share Posted July 12, 2020 I was out on cut grass Fri night and saw it from the tailgate of the truck. To be honest hadn't heard about it, and thought it was a plane coming into Bristol airport with it's lights on a long way away, thought it odd it not moving across the sky. Didn't think any more about it and went back to scanning, butthanks for clearing that up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rovercoupe Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 (edited) Stayed up to try and see it last night and it was really quite faint to the naked eye, just a blur really but with a 20 second long exposure it came out quite well.
