      Where and what time was this? I raced out to Cypress at 4am last night after a friend told me he saw it, but it was light out by the time I got there. I hope to catch a glimpse tonight 🤞

        It was around 11pm near Eagle Ridge Hospital in Port Moody. Nothing special about the location, just walking around my complex. By 12:30 it got faint.

    There’s something that just gets your heart racing when you see something funky going on in the sky, however faint.
