Really not a great photo, but I am still happy to have captured a Starlink satellite cluster (that came out of nowhere!) while photographing the milkyway. Before it disappeared, I got the only shot of it with the edge of the milkyway visible (and an airplane). And to top off my night, the Space station (ISS) passed about 20 minutes earlier. It's worth trying to see the Starlink, if you haven't, because it was an awesome sight!
