Summary

[edit]
Description

Indicated by the arrows, two luminous satellites that have crossed the field of the Orion Belt. In every shot taken, there is always a trace of at least one satellite. This is not an exaggeration. Often, they are very faint and emerge after a careful analysis of the collected material. Sometimes they are instead as bright as some stars, clearly visible to the naked eye and ruin the images of the night sky as in this photo. It does not matter if these astronomical images are only playful: it is still a damage. And it will get worse and worse.
