Iridium 80 Flares Across Moon

From my location in North Orange County, CA, I observed
Iridium 80 flare as it approached the moon. I have an
image in the Astronomy section on my website, URL below.

Although it can't be seen in the image, 1x observation
showed the flare continued right across the Moon.

Easier if you put the exact URL
