The ISS happened to be overhead Starbase during the launch of Starship flight 6 last fall, and I was able to photograph the leftover trails from launch. Very fortunate positioning. It is not easy to time a launch, especially from orbit!

    Bruh… it’s actually wild to have astronauts just randomly drop images like this on reddit. Super cool
