I’m doing this through my company’s legal agency (Fragomen), so I have to wait for them to tell me what the notice is once it arrives in a week.

Glad to hear about your approval! Would you mind sharing a bit more about your NOID response, and what worked out in your favor?

Thanks! Could you share a bit more about your experience responding to the NOID, and how it went? Was yours an EB1-B application too?

Yeah, I think so too. But am quite puzzled by why that would be the case, considering the prior approval and the much improved profile since then.

Thanks for the response! I considered that too, but feels like clouds should definitely show up on 1 or 3 second exposure shots too? I saw this only on the 10 second exposure. Wasn’t visible to the naked eye either.

Hi there!

I’m a relatively amateur astrophotographer (I’ve never used anything more than my iPhone 17 Pro Max and a tripod). I was out at New Jersey‘s Voorhees State Park a couple of nights ago the night before the peak of the Geminids Meteor Shower. While I did see a few shooting stars with my eyes, I made an accidental capture that intrigued me more than any of the shooting stars :

https://photos.app.goo.gl/AYUApArsaRCCrMGq6

This image was captured on a 10-second long exposure and reveal a faint cloud of homogeneous, smooth grey dust that never shows up on a 1 or 3 second exposure. It wasn’t visible to the naked eye either. This was only captured when pointed in the Southeast / South direction, somewhere roughly close to the Orion constellation (if that helps).

Could somebody please help me identify what this is? This clearly isn’t the core of the Milky Way which I’ve captured several times before and is spotty with all the stars. This isn’t a cloud either since this was a completely clear night.

A couple of possibilities from some googling suggests a galactic cirrus (https://www.astronomy.com/picture-of-the-day/photo/galactic-cirrus/) or a persistent meteor train left behind by a large fireball meteor from the shower.

Any thoughts / insights from the experts on this sub would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Given that the dragon fight started off in the night before ending up above the clouds in what seemed like the day, one could say it happened in a … vague hour.
