Preissler_223450 ET Ariane 6

Having a star-be-que watching for meteors with Southern VT Astronomy Group then as the sky brightened we watched the moon rise over the mountains through the trees, turned around to give my eyes a rest and voila, Ariane 6 in the west traveling silently north. Beautiful crazy surprise. We all got goosebumps. Thinking about "our" Vulcan Centaur Rocket yet this trajectory at this hour wasn't right. Impressive, from French Guiana in South America. Good going!
