I don't know if it does, it's really hard to tell what's going on in the video but it's sure neat!

Damn. Any idea of what kind of lens he used for that? I'm assuming a tracking mount/tracking software was used, too..

Wow... that's impressive.
I remember going out on our driveway with at 5:00 or 6:00 AM and watching it go by. It's been quite a few years now. That was before they even mounted the solar panels.

Nope. You can try, but I'm not sure that a laser can make it 220 miles with all the shit in the atmosphere. :thinking:
