  1. Now that you mention it I’ve seen it on some military videos. For instance in one you see a PAC-3 take off in one direction and a faint glow traveling the other.

    First ten seconds of that.

  2. I thought that it looked awfully bright to be Neptune; even Uranus is a pretty dim object unless you know right where to look for it.
    Want to try a interesting experiment, see if you can photograph Venus in broad daylight.
    It’s visable to the naked eye if you know where to look.
    Some experiments with differnt colored filters might make it show up better against the blue sky.
