They are a prerequisite for practicing karate in the garage.

Just wondering if anybody else saw what I saw. I had to go get my daughter as a witness.

I'm in the Texas panhandle and actually called my brother in Arkansas and told him to get his goggles and go see.

Yes, I randomly stay up very late and stare at the sky with night vision goggles....



...bunch of damn weirdos in this place

Well now if you live in the country and hunt coyotes at night and enjoy building camp fires and that sort of thing. It's pretty normal. My brother bought us both a pair of NVG's when he was working as a contractor overseas and making $$$.
You only live once. On a night when you can only see a few stars you can strap on the NVG's and see the sky lit with stars everywhere.

How are they for general stargazing?

So what did it look like with the goggles on? I'm guessing that's the big deal here? It looked much different than in the regular video?

They light the sky up with every object out there. Makes it easy to see passing satellites,space station ,meteors. You'll see a ton of shooting stars you'll never pick up with the naked eye.

This is the exact pair I have.

I could see 3 of the objects faintly with the naked eye. They got my attention so thats when I went in to grab my NVG's and Holy shit!

The last time I looked up all I saw was your mother's meat curtains dangling and then she squirted and I've been in the hospital every since.

So you don’t think it’s just space debris or a comet?
