Details:
During December 2016, I have tried to take IC2118 (the witch head nebula) in Eridan constellation in images with a 12 inches telescope.
I was (and I am always) surprised by the number of geostationary satellites I have seen on all my images. I have taken images of the nebula during 5 hours and I have seen 111 lines created by geostationary satellites (satellites do lines because the telescope follows the stars) !
I show you the raw image where I have the most important number of satellites : 7 (it's a raw image of 3 minutes exposure).
