English: Iridium satellite #6 (upper) and its replacement, #51, flaring 6 seconds apart in a 21.4-second exposure. The bright object on the right is Jupiter. Arcturus is the bright star at about the 7 o'clock position. Spica is just out of view in the lower right. The satellites were moving left to right. The left end of the trails is in Coma Berenices and the right end is in Virgo (near Virgo Epsilon, Vindemiatrix, I think - see Astrometry).
