At about 1 minute in, in the mid upper left part of the view, there’s a “star” that isn’t tracking the rest of the sky. Video glitch, or is that actually a geosynchronous satellite?

(D’oh, figures I read Katie’s post after I posted mine… but the question still stands, since no one has answered it!)

Edit #2: http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap120411.html — NASA says they’re satellites. Wicked.

The sunset here in Los Angeles on Wednesday was mind-blowing. I’m lucky I live on a hill and am 5 stories up in an apartment building, the view was incredible.

Every now and then you see spots that don’t rotate with the star field. Are they geostationary satellites?
