“Don’t blink. Don’t even blink”: Arima+ on “An optical transient candidate of ≲ 2-second duration captured by wide-field video observations” where they look up into the Earth’s shadow to capture these very fleeting events. I’m not sure of their interpretation, but it’s fascinating. #astrodon ☄

Two images of a point source representing the transient event. The first image is circular, the second one is not circular, suggesting it may be quite close to the Earth.
