Guest, we will be conducting site maintenance August 4th and some downtime is expected. At this time Rally Point and the Member Map will also become an app-only feature for long-term security and stability. A few days after this maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

Spoiler alert, minor rant ahead...
Oh fine. Waited months for the right time to catch the Milky Way core rising at the right time with a new moon, drove hundreds of miles to get there, (hey great! no clouds tonight!) hauled the not-very-light camera slider out to the perfect spot, got the time lapse sequence running, and 2 hours and hundreds of frames into what is looking to be a great time lapse... here comes this stuff right through the middle of it. GEE! Thanks, Starlink! (Remember they said there would be minimal impact on astrophotography/astrophysics/etc?) This ain't "minimal". I can only imagine what the scientists are saying about this 'miracle of modern technology'.
