From about 2:35am, bright pre-dawn satellite flares can be seen at lower left corner. Also Perseid meteors, and Mars almost atop Jupiter near center screen.
I watched the replay at 2x speed from 2:40am to 3:20am. Saw numerous Perseid meteors, plus others. Also saw many bright pre-dawn satellite flares at lower left, some with a red tint from a red dawn far to the North East. Jupiter dominated center screen, with Mars just above it, then Pleiades higher up, and Orion rising at lower right. A good show!
