Posa B f/1.8, ISO 1250, tripod.

Nella notte del 23 luglio 2025 ho assistito a uno spettacolo unico, visibile perfettamente ad occhio nudo mentre attraversava il cielo notturno sopra l'Abruzzo. Si tratta della scia del secondo stadio del razzo SpaceX Falcon 9, missione NASA TRACERS, lanciato da Vandenberg Space Force Base in California alle 11:13 a.m. PDT (18:13 UTC) dello stesso giorno. La luce solare, riflessa dai gas a 300+ km di quota, ha creato questa colonna verticale biancastra, ripresa durante la sessione di star trails. La traiettoria e l'illuminazione solare in alta quota hanno reso il fenomeno visibile come un cono/plume luminoso fino ad arrivare in Italia dove ho scattato questa immagine! Qui in versione Star trail dopo 5 ore di scatti consecutivi con il mio Brightin Star 9mm
