Probably right if I think about it. The angular size of the average satellite must be very small. Not that I know what it would actually be... 🤔

I've just had a little Google search there, (I'm retired, it's what I do😉).... And it would appear the size in the vast majority of cases is sub arc second. Seeing something that small transit in the brief time it would take to cross a half degree object would be a real challenge... To say the least. So balloon it is... 😁
