EDIT - The answer is that it is Falcon 9. And the spiral is excess fuel released from the rocket.
#astro #question This object was just passing over Brno (21:00-21:03 CET) from NWW to SEE. It started as a small butterfly from light - I thought about some kind of halo around a bright star. But it was moving in satellite speed, and the halo was rotating and growing. Photos are bad because it is from phone.

Few stages of the lunar eclipse through cloud cover. Before reaching totality the clouds completely closed in, but it was fun to watch.

The Bubble Nebula (NGC 7635) is a stunning, 7-light-year-wide bubble formed by a massive star 7,100 light-years away in Cassiopeia. The star’s winds blow gas at over 6.4 million km/h, creating this cosmic shape. The nebula's bright colors are from oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen gases. Discovered in 1787, it's one of the most fascinating objects in space.

TIL: on the a5100, Sony disabled the option to turn off LENR (Long Exposure Noise Reduction), so every 30 sec image took me 62.
That's not only sad, but reduces the quality of the stacked image.
Anyway: Here's one of about 50 Subs, slightly cropped.
