"a bright visitor passing through the inner Solar System. Now, the orbiting satellites themselves only appear as streaks because of the long camera exposure, over 10 minutes in this case. On the contrary, to the eye, satellites appear as points that drift slowly across the night sky and shine by reflecting sunlight -- primarily just after sunset and before sunrise. The featured image was taken just before sunrise two weeks ago from Bavaria, Germany."
I guess the only ways to access the natural sky is to leave the atmosphere or to use AI to remove the trails.
Yeah I figured it was processed to show off the trails. I'm more wondering about the number of satellites in the picture. Like I said you're out in a dark sky zone you can see them with the naked eye. Last time I was out you'd always see one or two flying by but this picture looks like a hundred or so in a 10 minute stretch. That's a lot more than I would have guessed.
That seems about right. https://satellitemap.space/vis/constellation/starlink
