This is a close up from my Perseid time-lapse video focusing on a pulsating object that crosses from the upper left hand corner to the lower right. Each frame was a 15 second exposure, so the object can be seen disappearing for over a minute between each pulse. I'm guessing this is a satellite with a rotation that causes it to intermittently reflect sunlight towards the earth like an iridium flare, but other theories are welcome!
