Description

This is the previous animation cropped. Zoya is flashing from center right to above center left. It's a faint streak. It's more obvious on the right - which is the first night, which was the best night. It was very transparent. Over the course of the day, Zoya moved to the left and the streak appeared, fainter, next to a little triangle of stars. It's probably best to locate the streak flashing on and off at center right. Then you can use the direction of the streak to point to the left. Once you've located both streaks, you can watch them move.

It appears magnitude 16.3 is right at the limit from my suburban sky as the subs were very exposed.
