Pelican Lake, WI
Was outside tending a campfire and looked up and seen what looked like 3 stars very close together in a perfect straight line. Was shocked to notice them all gliding across the night sky in a perfect line and if you looked closely you could see that they were connected by the rest of the crafted that seemed to be cloaked into the night sky. All 5 of us all witnessed this and even went completely silent and heard NOTHING! We watched it just silently glide over passed us and on into the night. Space Link satellites. PD

Xenia, OH
A light the had a consistent blink and a consistent downward trajectory that disappeared at our horizon. It was moving very fast. Much faster than any satellite. We thought it was a meteor but noticed the consistent blinking. Crazy.. it was to our East.

Crane Lake, MN
Star/satellite sized and shaped white lights appeared in sky. Lined up in a straight line, at first spacing was tight and close together then spacing between them and gradually got longer until none. Seen while camping at Lake Jeannette, St. Louis County. Space Link satellites. PD

Cross plains, WI
We were having a campfire. It was a very clear night, we could see hundreds of stars. Suddenly, one of us say three UFOs flying in a straight line. They came from the west, flew over our heads, and then northeast. They looked like three stars moving at a moderate speed. They were white, non flashing lights. They didn’t make a sound as the flew across the sky. String of Space Link satellites. PD

Conneaut, OH
There was a line of about 15 lights that appeared to all be connected moving across the sky. It was directly overhead in the dark sky with no clouds. The lights were in a perfectly straight line and brightened intermittently. Some lights near the front, middle, or end would become brighter; sometimes one, two, or three showing brightly at the same time with no apparent sequence. The lights were all spaced apart evenly. The line of lights seemed to appear out of nowhere, moved across the sky in a straight line, then one after another disappeared as though they were vanishing into a spot in the sky. (How you would imagine train cars going into a tunnel) This event was estimated to last 60 seconds. This was seen by myself (full time college student and homemaker), my fiance (laborer), and 13 year old daughter. Satellites. PD

Madison, OH
line of lights moving west to east less than a quarter mile from lake erie. in under one minute there was about 20 or less lights in a row moving in a straight line heading towards lake erie. The middle light would get really dim then get bright and kept doing that. Space Link satellites. PD

Floyds Knob, IN
We were camping and set up by the creek. All the stars were out and no cloud in sight. All of a sudden a straight line of mostly bright lights hovered over us. Some lights were dimmer than others but these were not stars. They were like orbs of 8 or 9 lights in a straight row. They made no noise, they produced no winds, they just hovered there looking at us for about 5 to 6 minutes. Then they were gone. Again they made no noise, they left behind no streaks in the night sky they were just there for 5 minutes and then gone within the blink of an eye. We kept saying I can't believe this is real. It was a long craft with several glowing lights

Sunbury, OH
My cousin and I were walking around our campground at night when I looked up too see a large aircraft directly above my head. It stretched very long, from about the visible length of star Vega to Altair. It was a very long and skinny spacecraft with hundreds of small lights at the bottom that moved very slowly across the sky and turned largely, the way a boat would, before disappearing. Hundreds of lights seemed to all move and one glowed brighter suddenly in the center before dimming back to the same level as the others. It was the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen.

Westcliffe, CO
5/25 Over Custer County CO around 10:15, a “string of pearls” like series of quick moving points of light, closely trailing one another in a straight line, say 15” long with out-streached hands, moving SSW to NNE. There was a faint glow under the trail of objects. Saw with binoculars. Guessing 20-30 objects, separate, but appearing linked. Sighting of Space Link satellites. PD

Quartzsite, AZ
I was with my boyfriend near Crystal Hill outside of Quartzsite last night. When we got out of our vehicle to camp, he looked shocked and told me to look up at the sky. What it looked like was a perfect line of stars moving across the sky in a straight line. It was about 7-15 small stars in length and there was light hitting the stars illuminating only 3-4 at a time. The perfectly straight line of stars moved slower than a meteor/ shooting star and kept moving across the sky. It seemed faster than a satellite. Basically it looked like mini space ships/stars following each other. The light beam I mentioned earlier would hit a couple of groupings of the stars at a time and followed it as it when across the sky. This happened at 9:20pm between the pan handle of the Big Dipper and Arcturus, but closer to Arcturus. It went in between these and kept going in a straight line. Space Link satellites. PD

It was about 60+ lights (estimated) in a perfect line with a few stragglers on the same plain, going west to east at a fast rate of speed. It was lower then stars since it was traveling in front of them. It took about 2 minutes to go from overhead, where I first saw it, over horizon and out of sight. It was brighter than stars, but they where all the same size.

Morehead, KY
I was out on Cave Run lake and saw a long line of lights moving together through the sky. The line of lights seemed connected and had about 20 or so lights. It moved slowly through the sky and just faded out. I can best describe it a stream from a jet but it was a line of separately defined lights.

Chico, CA
Sighting was in North Chico in the early morning. 30 or more orbs flying east in a perfectly straight line several hundred feet long. No flashing lights, just solid white lights. Faster than a plane and slower than a meteor. Quietly flew off into the horizon towards a thunder storm over Paradise, Ca. String of Space Link satellites. PD

Payneville, KY
At approximately 1:08am, I happen to look up into the northern part of the sky & seen what appeared to be, as I went to slowly focus my eyes, a row of what I counted to be (at first, that is) 18 bright reddish orange lights that all appeared to be as the same size from 1 end to the other. Every light also appeared clear enough to be able to see, with the naked eye I might add, that they were in the shape or form of almost a perfect square. As I looked & became to stare at this row of lights for about 30 seconds, I finally spoke loudly to my friend asking (excuse me for the profanity...) “Hey, what the **** is that?!” Then I again excitedly asked “Hey (*his name*), what the **** is that?!” He, who was sitting up on the porch, which btw faced east, had then stepped off & walked out to where i was. This was just to the edge of his driveway to which he now also faced north & w/out any hesitation whatsoever, had seen exactly what I was seeing as well. The lights ! were in a straight line & were moving northeast. Now there was also a plane that was flying in the same general area/part of the sky. At least, so it seemed anyway to which I’m sure the way the angle/direction was to where we were looking from. The plane seemed to be much closer to where we were though considering the speed it seemed to travel & area of sky it seemed to cover compared to how these were moving themselves. As the plane seemed to further itself away in the sky, we kept our eyes on these lights. So as we kept viewing them, my friend raced inside to get a night vision camera that he has while I stood still & never took my eyes off of the lights. They remained in a tight row & seemed to now be as many as a possible 30 or more. I only was able to surely definitely count a now total of 24 as something began to take place. As my friend raced outside with his night vision camera, I myself was trying to use my iPhone camera but both were unable to get these lights to ! appear on either one of our camera screens. I really don’t kno! w how to explain why that was occurring. I asked how many lights he was seeing & he said he was counting somewhere around a possible 30 himself. I know there were more than 24 at one time but can only say for sure that I had took the time at one point to count out 24 of them. Now as all this was happening, we were really asking one another of how sure each of us were in seeing what we were seeing & all of this was actually happening to which we both kept assuring ourselves that this was something that was actually taking place in the way that we were experiencing it to which is the same exact way that I’m describing it here. I apologize greatly for the rambling but I hope you can understand how excited & overwhelmed I am still up to this very point as I try to so greatly detail any/every little thing that both I & my friend can recall for you. Now, after a minute & a half or so had gone by, over the next I’d say 15-20 seconds (in what seemed to be a best estimate of) perhaps then ab! out 12-15 of the lights start to, I guess, dissipate then. Now I don’t mean in anyway close to how, let’s say how a tail of a shooting star/meteorite tends to look like. When I say dissipate, I mean to just slowly fade out into a continuous dim. As if you were to sit & watch someone slowly turn a rotary dial type light switch from fully on to dimly to just dark & without any flickering whatsoever. The first 6 lights in the giant row of squared shaped reddish orange lights remained just as bright as they did throughout the entire 2 mins of this entire event from 1:08 AM to 1:10 AM. They seemed to just totally remain 1 right alongside the other staying illuminated just as bright as they were when I first saw them at 1:08 AM. So now, it is (what I counted to be over n over again) just 6 lights left to which all remained lit & together, no one or the other within the tightly grouped side by side 6 of them dissipating/disappearing one before the next. Then at approximately 1:10 ! AM, all 6 just disappeared in an instant but in a strange sort! of ‘ins tant’. The 6 of them seemed to disappear in a ... i don’t know I guess almost as if to say the dark sky sort of ‘vacuumed’ them up and just... gone... like that, period. Then just... nothing. I don’t know how else to explain it but to say it was as if you’re looking at the front of a vacuum at eye level & you were to watch a piece of something such as dirt or dust for example & it literally just gets sucked up into the vacuum. Well, that is the very best & most accurate way to describe how differently & unique these last 6 lights seem to then vanish at the end of this most bizarre incident. Now there are some things I want to include & make very clear of as well. First off, neither 1 of us ever seen any sort of ‘ship, craft and/or structure’ of ANY kind. I say this & find it most important due to the comments I want to include in further describing the ‘square shape’ that I clearly saw in looking at these lights. A really good way to describe what we were looking at would be! , for example, take the fuselage of a passenger airplane. How all the windows are lined up next to each other & then say, have each one wide open with its blind pulled all the way up. Now as for the color/light & glow it seemed to create... I guess I’d say to imagine the inside cabin to be on fire, maybe? I suppose that’d be a way to describe the such glow and illuminated reddish orange shade that was being put off in each single segment of light. Now I was able to record the last few seconds of all this on my phone. Well, let me put it another way. I have the last 4 - 5 secs of us talking to one another in excitement as I’m holding my phone towards whatever this is in the sky yet as I mentioned before, nothing seems to come up on the screen. I just cant help but to feel frustrated bcos of not just myself but to have another person that I know so very well and can trust in knowing that he’s seeing the same exact thing I am. Yet, neither camera we’re holding and filming with! are able to pick it up. Even with the lights being as bright ! as they were while dissipating into all but the last 6. It just doesn’t make sense. I know this all comes off as sounding a bit crazy. I know how I’ve been my whole life in hearing such stories from different ones in describing such bizarre & crazy so-called UFO’s. I’ve got to admit though that I’m afraid that I’m about to feel the same in what most of these people have went thru as well in experiencing such a crazy incident(s) in their life. I’ll just say that “Hey, I know that both my friend and I are a couple of smart middle aged guys who are intelligent in each of our own field/trades. We both stood there for a couple of hours after the incident was over & tried & tried to explain what it was and/or could be but even after speaking to just a very select few of certain ones close to each of us, we really cannot come up with a logical answer. I know I can speak for the both of us though in saying that we would give anything to know what it was that we actually saw last night on Ma! y 25th at btwn 1:08AM and 1:10AM in the N to NE sky of Payneville, KY. Please if any1 else saw this described incident, I ask that you share as well in what you may have seen and perhaps what your opinion may be. Space Link satellites. PD

This evening my wife and I happened to look up into the sky at 11:30 pm. I just returned home with my wife after picking her up from work. When we looked into the sky, we saw what appeared to be 50 or more stars moving in a single file from the west to the east. The lights/stars were close in proximity and there seemed to be a few lights or stars that were quite always from the others but still aligned perfectly behind the other lights/stars. We could not see any shape it just looked like a string of lights going across the sky in a straight line. If you were to take your hands and put them 6 to 8 inches apart from the beginning to the end of the formation (I could not begin to explain how many miles that would be in comparison) that would be how long it was. My wife and I stood there watching the string of lights moving without the object making any sound. I do not know if anyone else has seen anything like this. Hopefully there is some kind of information about this. I am a skeptic. My wife is not but when I saw that this evening the hairs on the back of my neck stood up. I tried to get a video of the formation however when I thought I was video taping I forgot to press record. I wish I had pressed record!

Two females star gazing on back porch noticed sliver of light(s?) in sky. Appeared to be moving. Disappeared above horizon after approximately 10 minutes. Seemed to fade into distance. Looked like clump of stars? Also similar to how light looks reflecting off of power lines at night. Confirmed no power lines in vicinity.
