all the time at night. This is the time of year to do it, even in a city you should see a few an hour. The first satellite i ever saw though was completely by accident, it was also in the middle of the day (about 2pm in the summer). It was an Iridium flare from one of their old satellites. It had cheese grater like antennas which were very reflective and when you saw one at the correct angle relative to the sun, it would appear as this growing white dot, suddenly flare up and be very clear, then slowly taper off and disappear back into the blue of the sky. You actually used to be able to look up when flares were going to be visible and where (they were coms satellites so they had a known attitude relative to the earth and therefore you knew where the antennas were pointing, normally there was a couple of periods per month where you could see them). Since then I've only seen one other satellite during the day (well actually it was a pair of them), i was just plane watching with a pair of binoculars. ISS is regularly overhead. Pretty easy to ID, does it look really really bright? Like more than Venus in brightness? It's probably the ISS.

What we likely did see was the much larger third-stage booster that followed behind the satellite for a while.

I recall seeing Echo as my first observed satellite. One thing odd about it was the fact that Echo would "Jog" slightly and quickly in orbit. I could discern this movement from the ground. VERY unusual to say the least!

As a child in Chicago, I remember watching Echo as it streamed across the sky. It was very visible, and light pollution was a lot less then. How much less was light pollution?? Well, walking on Grand Ave near Ashland, I could look up and see the Milky Way. I could even see the Pleiades. Also known as The Seven Sisters, which were used by the Ancient Greeks to test a person's eyesight. Yes, I knew that stuff at the age of 8. Much better schooling back then, that is for sure.

I remember as if it were yesterday when I first saw a satellite.

When I finally saw it, I realized that we are nothing in the vastness of space, but it simply made me happy. To this date I don’t know which satellite was it.

Excellent! I loved how you kept the car from the iconic photo in the animations - nice touch! I was hoping for a bigger shout-out for the Holmdel antenna. Built specifically for Echo, they had a pesky noise problem that after lots of tries (including cleaning out all the pigeon poop in the horn) turned out to be the cosmic microwave background radiation. They got a Nobel Prize out of the deal. Echo was the gift that kept on giving.

The first satellite i ever saw was quite a few years ago. I went out camping with my family, and I stayed up late to look at the stars. Then bright pulsing light flew overhead, slowly making its way across the night sky. I don't know what satellite it was, but I've seen quite a few satellites fly over, because the small city i live in isn't very populated, so there´s not that much light pollution.

This sleepy little town is located in a valley near Pasadena. It was a low light town and had no streetlights etc. It was isolated from LA's light pollution so you could see the satellites, mercury and gemini capsules as they passed over alway near JPL! I miss those days.

It's the most advanced probe there will be... awesome work guys... E.B.P. are next..😊😊😊 Linear to reflective tech..

I watched the starlink go above my house and it was AMAZING. It was like a massive train of like 24-40 satellites and it looked so cool.

I vividly remember going outside on the front lawn and watching for Echo I and II. They were plainly visible. Very bright and fast moving. Another even more fascinating event was their eventual destruction in the atmosphere. There was an AP news item published in the '70s entitled: "With a Wimper or a Bang?" The scientists were interested in knowing how these deflated satellites would enter the atmosphere. Turns out . . . they were a wimper. Drag forces pulled them down and there wasn't much visual evidence of an explosion or puff of light and dust. Went very sedately.

Well I remember when i found out on tiktok that Starlink satellites are gonna pass above me real soon. like 10 minuntes before them passing on the sky I got that video recommended on my "For You" page. And so I immediately got out to the outside. And I was waiting, looking at the sky trying to figure out from where it will come out (the video on tiktok also showed what star constelations should I look at). And there it was - A beautiful line of glowing dots in the sky, passing faster than I expected. Just in that moment my mom came back from work so I ran to her car as fast as I could, opened the doors of the car before she could even turn off the car and told her "Look in the sky! There are starlinks passing by! She couldn't get to find them at first time but then when she finally found it, she was stunned as much as I was. She also tried to record that but she was kinda too late, but the view itself was enough for us I think. I will never in my life forget about this - it was really crazy and fun too see even tho it seems like I got really excited about some dots passing on the sky!

The first satellite i ever saw believe it or not was the Hubble Space Telescope. I was star gazing one night and saw this one was moving a big oddly being new to the whole star gazing thing at the time. So i aimed my telescope at it and zoomed in as best as i could and saw a slightly blurry (imagine 144p) Hubble. It had the new solar panels, so after STS-109 but before STS-125.

The first satellite I saw was the ISS coming home from work. I hadn't thought about being able to see satellites with the naked eye until then, but I made sure to show people every time I happened to see it again when out with friends.

The first sattelite I ever saw in the night sky was the one that was with humanity the longest, our only natural sattelite: the moon. Every night I get to see it fully lit up by the light of the sun I get motivated to further pursue my aerospace degree and help humanity explore the universe further to see many more beautiful things it has to offer.

Well, at least partially lit up 😉

I remember the first satellite I saw in the night sky was one I didn’t know the name of, but I remember sitting around a campfire with my uncle and father, when one of them pointed up and told me a satellite was there. Sure enough, a faint dot dancing across the night sky was there. I still don’t know what satellite it was, but I fondly remember that moment
