Falcon 9 deorbitation seen from Poland! May 2, 2024. Gases from the second stage of the rocket. 

A tu zamiast timelapsa byłby fajny film wysokiej jakości, ale przycisk REC w drugim aparacie jakoś nie do końca się wcisnął.... Boli...

that was lucky shoot almost everyone at this time was waiting for aurora borealis

Danke. Ich wartete auf das Nordlicht und eine Rakete erschien. Ich hatte einfach Glück.

@@MrSuperMole Thank you😃

Nie mam teraz zdjęć pod ręką, ale to było chyba iso 1600 i 4sek

@@MrSuperMole dziękuję ❤️

Это такой спутник от Илона Маска

All orbital data match - it's already been checked. The deorbitation process took place over Poland - the engines were fired to reduce speed and lower the orbit.

@@MrSuperMole Well... it does not... let's make some math. On May 2nd at 20:36 CEST Falcon rocket launched two satellites to a polar orbit (so it was heading from California to the south). I asume that the inclination of the orbit is around 90 degrees (unfortunatelly Space-Track do not register this flight yet). To get from California to the latitude of Poland at orbital speed it will take you something around 70 minutes (the whole orbit takes around 90 minutes). Vandenberg's longitude is 120 degrees West...so at the other side of the globe it s 60 East. In an hour the earth rotates 15 degrees. So exactly at 21:40 CEST the rocket would be at longitude 45 East... and that is more east than Moscow (Russia). And the next revolution will be at 23:10 CEST... and this time it will be at longitude 22 East which is over the eastern part ov Poland. You see? It is not possible to be over Europe at 21:55 CEST for this body as you write. At 21:55 CEST it could be somewhere over the Earth's North Pole at altitude of 500 km so it was not visible from any part of Poland.

TLE data confirms it was a Falcon 9.

@@MrSuperMole And what is your source of those TLE datas? Because I am usualy using TLE from Space-Track web page... but as I mentioned, this launche isn't there yet.

celestrak

Yes ig?

Dane TLE to potwierdzają.

@@MrSuperMole spoko

to falcon potwierdzona informacja

Jednak Falcon 9 :) Na początku nie wiadomo było co to, teraz już jest pewność.
