Anthonyexmouth Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Only joking, flicking through some unused subs and noticed these streaks. Satellites? green colour seems odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vlaiv Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Passing airplane - parallel streaks give it away, wing and tail lights that usually blink - this is why there is bright part of streak - period of blink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant see it if you can see the green light unless the vessel is coming straight at you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know this to be the case, but I have noticed both lights not being visible at the same time on aircraft passing overhead here.

vlaiv Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I've actually seeing such signature in my subs as direct consequence of airplane passing overhead. I was shooting short subs - 1 minute, and spotted low flying plane heading for my target area. I said to myself: "Hope it does not fly directly into frame or I'll loose my sub". Guess what happened dozen of seconds later when sub downloaded? It was much more magnified due to low altitude of airplane, but also because of narrow FOV of long focal scope, and "blink" parts where very shiny and thick.
