    Someone took a image of NGC 3035, showing two trails from geo sat's.

    I have determined they are the XM geo satellites. XM 3 passed above NGC 3035, and XM1 below it. At
    the time the XM 1 and 3 were near each other. Since then XM 1 has been set to drift mode, so it no
    longer parked, but drifting.
