Details:
Having just left a friend's house after a few beers and a film, I noticed what I thought to be Jupiter at c. 35° elevation - then I looked again at it was gone! "Very strange" thought I, and then realised "hold on, .... I'm looking northwest!?"....so.... must've been an Iridium Flare? Then I looked NNE and noticed VERY bright clouds; also not normal in that direction at 03:00am ! Once I got home, I whipped out the ol' Box Brownie and snapped these. One might ask 'Y' are we seeing a large increase in NLCs now?
