The Andromeda galaxy photo I took last week has a faint satellite trail through it - had no idea how common these are

Was processing my stack from Tuesday night. Saw this thin white line cutting across M31. Thought it was a sensor artifact. Nope. Looked it up - there's over 9,000 satellites in orbit now. Makes me wonder how many of my older shots have junk in them. Anyone else dealing with this?

Are you kidding me, that's so frustrating to lose data to space junk!

Guess I should start charging my satellites rent for photobombing.

Man that's one satellite trail out of how many hours of data? I'd bet if you check your old shots you'd be lucky to find even one. Way too much fuss over nothing.
