Reply to comment by Fonkybeachbum in Broke af but I want to show my kid the green comet by FreekBugg

Thanks, that would be interesting to try. I hadn't really considered satellites. We are in town, but it's a small town and we have family further out of town we see every week. I figured we would try there. I don't know how to describe the amount of light pollution, but we can see the milkyway on clear nights. Heck, some nights even in town, since it's a small town.

I think you’ll be good! Definitely for satellites.

This is the app I was talking about. I think it was a couple bucks….it’s cool and the same company makes a night sky one but it’s a little more money.

Thanks. I'm kinda computer dumb but I think I would need an iPhone and I have a Samsung, but I'm sure there is some sort of equivalent app for it. I will definitely look onto it because that's cool and I never thought about trying to see a satellite. Would be good practice because I figure you get many more chances with them, lol.
