I was outside for 10 minutes, and I saw one super bright satellite and yelled a lot of swear words at it (turns out it was the ISS - sorry astronauts! I used to be excited about seeing you, but now I hate it). I saw another satellite flare that was as bright as Jupiter, despite being low on the horizon so very far away.
The night sky is looking exactly how we predicted, and being right has never made me feel worse.
More positively, I saw 4 moose by the side of the road earlier today.
