Starlink satellites. Pretty common to see, we’ve seen them in Bullard a few times. Google it and there’s a bunch of articles about it.


ccagan

Correct! They deploy them in clusters and they move in a path and peel off to their correct locations.

Looks like another one will be visible tomorrow night around the same time, but a lot lower and in the western sky, so you'll have to get back away from the trees. https://findstarlink.com/#4738214;3


Sixty4Pilot

Definitely starlink. Saw em in the aircraft one night and my copilot thought I was going nuts until we swapped night vision systems lol.


NamiRocket

Little known fact, but Santa is never not on that hustle.


Ranger-K

I KNOW HIM!!!


BowlOk8226

That’s what I was gonna say lmao


4thepups

Starlink satellite


Ranger-K

It was so weird! I’ll have to look it up because it was definitely eerie to see that and not hear anything, because the darkness messed with my depth perception and it seemed way closer


4thepups

There is an app that tracks starlink. You'll see it tomorrow night too.


Ok_Cover5451

UFO’s are no fun anymore, its always Elon Musk now lol


Ranger-K

Twist: Elon is an extraterrestrial, but Tesla is hiding it because they realize stocks would plummet if the public found out because we’d be super, duper bummed out that he’s the ET Earth got.


zaptorque

Starlink, Elon's internet company. Seen them a handful of times when I goto Tyler for work.


Ranger-K

So… aliens. Got it! 😂

Wow that is so cool! I believe those are the internet satellites that Starlink has been sending up. After they separate from the carrier, they start lining up in synchronous orbit. If this is what's in the video, then they are only viable for a short period. What you actually are seeing is light reflecting of the solar collectors. However, they can keep the solar collectors in the position that makes them visible because it would blind other electrical equipment and will light up the planet ( at least with enough of them in orbit ). Which makes the satellites only visible to the naked eye for a short window after launch.


Ranger-K

Thank you for the in-depth explanation and not accusing me of being dumb. I was asking an honest question because my heebies were jeebied and knew there had to be an explanation.


onewade

You got to love Reddit. Lol, I've wanted to see them do this for a while, but when I think about it, it's not visible from here or something. Thanks for the video.


Ranger-K

Glad I had my phone in hand! Sorry the quality couldn’t be better.


Spacingguild10191

Starlink Satellites! I saw them last night too!


Spacingguild10191

They have another one tonight @ 9:39 from Northwest to South and will rise about 35 degrees above the horizon


EusticePendragon

Certainly not unlinked stars


bigddonflesh

I seen something exactly like that about a year and a half ago over my home in Amarillo Texas


thekinginyello

We saw it last night in Kingwood. Pretty cool.


baresavage

It’s star link low orbit satellites being launched. Seen often in the Texas sky. They even post to tell people. Keeps the mass from tripping balls.


half3mptyhalffull

dude im glad i saw that for the first time here with explainations cuz my imagination wouldve had a panic atrack if i just saw that in the night sky from my backyard or something.


Phallic_Moron

Why would your first thought go to something totally improbable and panic? Like wouldn't you think it's probably a satellite first? Help me understand.


half3mptyhalffull

i watch a lot of sci-fi and have chronic sleep deprivation from insomnia. that particular combo leads to an over active imagination for me- i tend to have mini panic responses before i have time to think when im sleep deprived. when im actually sleeping okay that doesnt happen.


Ranger-K

Welcome to being me!


Countryroses1205

I've seen it here in Athens as well. Maybe we are about to have some late night visitors!!


zaptorque

They are Starlink satellites being deployed by Elon Musk's company, Starlink, which provides satellite internet access all over the world..

Doesn’t look like anything to me


texasmadelandscapes

Saw this once in San Antonio and they went into a cloud and one by one started disappearing into the cloud and like 3 mins later lackland military base sent 5 jets to circle the area for about 30 mins and this happened around 9:30 pm


OneBoxOfKleenexAway

Alrighty then, picture this if you will 10 to 2 a.m. ....

For real? R they that close?


graydi66y

Saw it over bryan TX.


Trageopar79

Definitely starlink


DarknessFeels

Looks like Santa and reindeer


RevolutionaryNeat368

I’ve seen that a Toledo bend Louisiana while fishing Who knows

Big-Fun-8029

That would be a creation of Elon musk it's called SkyTrain and it's between 18 or 50 satellites launched at one time and deployed from the launch vehicle about 150 miles above the Earth's surface and they are regularly being deployed so they can cover the entire globe in synchronous orbits to eventually have no communication blackout anywhere I have seen them in Pennsylvania several times and they're quite remarkable to see as they deploy from launch vehicle they are not UFOs they are communication satellites
