anybody see the very fast large brown object go across sky at about 10.45
sat speed shape of sst but large
?

I was out with the binocs a few times and on two
occasions saw a large plane with full navigational
lights pass over at approx. 5000ft. It was totally
silent and if I had not gone outdoors would not
have been aware of it. We frequently get Hercules
transports over during the day and it may have been
one of these. OTOH Liz's wedding was taking place
about half a mile away across the fields and she may
have been taking exceptional precautions :-)
Spectacular views of the eclipse anyway.
