Details:
I had my camera set up for Milky way. Did all the focus stacking and left the camera to sit until the Milky way came into view. So while laying down on a rock to take a nap, I noticed a very bright light coming over the tops of the mountains! It looked like a proton arc aurora... But I was in Colorado, and facing south. So knew there had to be another explanation. Quick internet search revealed that Space X just launched a rocket! This was the first time I've ever seen it! Focus stacked for front to back focus. (Yes it was a nightmare!)
