Oct 2-3, 2019 time lapse plus star trails

I caught something pretty wild in my time lapse last night – a series of parallel satellites almost back to back, with the early ones being iridium-level brightness. In many years time lapsing the night sky, I’ve never seen this before.
  • In total there were around 50 satellites along the parallel track lower left.
    My best guess is this is the first batch of Starlink satellites launched in May 2019.
