I like astronomy, archaeology, photography, music and drinking a lot of tea. I hate politics. Something that annoys me: that I shall not respect the permanence, and to take me by what I'm not. The best sign: VIRGO. The worst: the health. The best: adapt and know how to get ahead.

TWO DWARF GALAXIES AND TWO SATELLITES Taken by Oleg Toumilovitch on December 29, 2015 @ Eastern Cape, South Africa
It wasnt planned, but when this two satellites flared, it was spectacular!
According to Calsky database, these are US Navy Ocean Surveillance Satellites (NOSS)
This satellite array determines the location of radio and radars transmitters,using triangulation, and the identity of naval units,by analysis of the operating frequencies and transmission patterns. Interesting sighting, sometimes flaring.
Other well defined astronomical gems of the Southern sky in the frame are Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, Tarantula nebula, Tucanae (47) Globular Cluster and magnitude 0.45 star Achernar.
