Check this out, Starlink real time.

I'm number three in Brevard County on the waiting list for Starlink Service.
Told it will be around August of this year for my service to start.
Don't really need it, as I have AT&T U-verse at 75 mbps service for $40 a month.
But I'm fully will to pay $100 a month for the Starlink service at 100 to 200 mbps, if for no other reason to give A&T the finger.

You want to see even more? Check the "debris" box. It's amazing anything gets in our out of our atmosphere without a collision.

We can thank Beijing Joe's best friends the Chi-Coms, inventors of the China Virus Weapon, for creating most of the space debris when they blew up one of their satellites with a surface missile. https://foreignpolicy.com/2010/03/22/ch ... te-killer/

The f*ck'in Kommies sure seem to have learned how to win a cold war unlike the Soviets. We handed them our technology and they stole the rest.

Years ago while working the night shift, at the power plant on the St Pete side of Gandy Bridge, I was sent to the roof to see if a vent was leaking steam. It was not, and as I turned around to walk back the the stairwell down to the top elevator level, I saw a bright flash of light. So bright you could read a book, between Gandy and the Howard Franklin. Took me a couple of minutes to see again after it went dark, it was so bright. What ever it was, it burned and exploded at I'm guessing 10,000+ feet up. 30yrs of working rotating shifts, nights every 5 weeks for 7 nights straight, it was the only one I saw.

I did see a Shuttle launch from the 8th floor at a power plant on Lake Monroe. North side of Sanford, at 0300, the entire shy and lake turned a bright orange, quite a sight.
