As Maxar Intelligence's WorldView Legion satellite sped over China, it snapped a picture of the Dingxin airbase below. In that photo, a surprise. No, not a giant middle finger etched into the sandy ground by the Chinese military—though you could see why that might happen—rather, a SpaceX Starlink satellite speeding through the frame.
WorldView Legion had papped a Starlink satellite as it sped by in Low Earth Orbit (LEO)—an incredibly rare occurrence. The satellite is seen in the image a few times: the darker image is the satellite, and the three fun new colourways are sadly nothing more than artifacts from the imaging process.
