Details:
Watched a train of Starlinks from the most recent launch pass by Venus during late twilight tonight. These are still in their lower orbit and much brighter, about 2nd magnitude. One of them even flared like an Iridium satellite! It got to maybe -2 magnitude for a few seconds. I count 41 in 16 minutes of exposure time. The gaps in the trails are between exposures. Canon 80D, Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 lens at 24mm f/4, ISO800, 30 second exposures, SkyWatcher Star Adventurer mount.
