I don't do Instagram and so can't access the original post, but here's kottke.org's description of this composite photo by Brendan Larsen...
...which shows the 1,400 satellites that traversed the night sky over two hours in New Zealand, creating more than 14,000 trails of light.
In case you are like me and don't use Instagram, the kottke.org post has details on how the composite was made (yes, it was done without AI).
I've heard that it's not possible to take a slow-shutter-speed photo of the night sky anymore without capturing a moving satellite, and this photo — as grimly beautiful as it is — reminds me of that.
