Small streaking light spotted above the horizon
Was that a bird? Or a plane? Under the “cover of darkness”, it may well have been the ISS followed by an eager Shuttle. Oh, the stories I’ll be able to tell my descendants, as we sit around whatever technology supercedes the family hearth in decades to come.
