Meteor/satellite/space debris/UFO passing in front of supermoon during the final stages of lunar eclipse
I set out to capture the supermoon during the lunar eclipse last night, but unfortunately, the eclipse started before moonrise in this area and there was a low band of clouds somewhere past the Cascades that hid the moon from view once it did rise until it was in the waning stage of the eclipse.
I shot a number of images during this time and on two instances captured objects zipping by in front of the moon. I had read discussions on line of individuals photographing unknown objects that passed in front of the moon from somewhere in outer space, but this was the first time I had personally witnessed it.
The first object was quite a bit slower (although still quite fast) than this second object that I've posted here. Shutter speed was 1/1000th of a second and these two images were shot back to back in continuous shooting mode, which equates to around 4-6 frames per second.
The other object was smaller and harder to tell if it was man-made or natural. I think this one looks like a meteor, but who knows; perhaps it's one for Project Blue Book. Maybe it's a flying saucer and there were little green men inside of it.
