There was chatter online about a potential fuel dump of rocket mission USSF-8 near the base of Orion. I set up my camera to try capture this in the general area. No special setup was required, standard star trail settings for 27 minute exposure. It’s interesting to see the star trails, but because the rocket was in a geosynchronous orbit it was possible to capture the fuel dump while doing a star trail image.
