We went on the Sierra bbq and star gazing tour. We were taken to this super flat spot in the mountains with great visibility. We had a lovely bbq while socializing with the group. Great view of the night sky and we were lucky enough to see some shooting stars, a huge burning meteorite (very impressive) and a fantastic view of Starlink as it passed by. Across the sky. The talk by Nate was tremendous. Over an hour of history, science and mythology from many different cultures. I can’t recommend it enough.
