    What is this?

    That is a satellite trail.
    The satellite reflects the sunlight and because of its speed it gets caught in just one filter.
    Satellite trails can also be blue or red.

    Inderdaad maar ik ben onlangs verhuist naar Noorwegen. Hier heb je een prachtige sterrenhemel en natuur. Om die reden ben ik dan ook verhuist. Leuk om een Belg tegen te komen
