Whole night was not visible by the naked eye. Was only visible through a camera. There was pillars already at 11 pm. It was on and off throughout the night. I called it a night at 2:30 am. SpaceX Starlink satellites made an appearance during a quiet period. That was the most visible objects in the sky. lol

Photo taken from Spanish Banks. Image is straight from the camera jpeg.

Just curious, do you know beforehand if it'd be visible by the naked eye? I saw the alert from the random app I installed on my phone but couldn't see anything outside

Nope. I cross my fingers everytime.

Starlink satellite chain's appearance was a cool twist, it looked so pretty. We were there too.

What time was it? I saw the satellites from Spanish banks, but had to face south to see them.
