A better impression of a shuttle reentry with a short frame speed.

Cool pic! No, it didn't look like that. It looked like the pic I posted in #374, except that's only how it looked through binocs. To the naked eye, it was but a wisp. As I said, I coudn't discern a forking with the naked eye, only through binocs.

And seen here withou the zoom-in. This more like a naked-eye view. It resembles a typical bolide with the bright speckle for the shuttle and the more obvious vapor trail behind. There is no detail to be seen at this scale... no bow shock or outline of a craft.
