These are trails of the Space Shuttle Endeavour, STS126 (left white track) and ISS (right, redder track) on November 29, 2008, the night before the SHuttle's landing,, with the two separated by two minutes.

Venus and Jupiter are to the lower left. It looks like there was another satellite flare near the ISS and Shuttle tracks, likely from an Iridium satellite.

This is looking west toward the light glow of Strathmore and Calgary in southern Alberta.

Technical:
Composite stack of 24 exposures, each 15 seconds with the Canon 15mm full-frame fish-eye lens at f/2.8 and Canon 20Da camera at ISO 3200. Reprocessed in 2025.
