Satellite Train

[Paleo]

Has anybody seen this? I just watched at least 20 evenly spaced satellites go across the sky (East of ATL). I'm assuming they're Elon Musk's but maybe Space Force? I wasn't looking for it, just looked up and saw what I thought was a fast plane flying really high then a saw a second one at the same angle and speed and knew they were satellites, then they just kept coming for about 10 minutes.

Weren't you just making fun of me claiming to see a surveillance plane while I was mowing my grass last weekend?

Never heard of this. But I will be researching and looking.

I got in trouble for mentioning the space station going over after the fact. Just sayin.
???
Seriously though, would have loved to see it.

Isn’t that the ?bezos?spacex? Thing. Saw a picture on another site I follow and it’s been had several links articles.

Kind of cool from the pictures I’ve seen but haven’t seen it in person.

They were a lot further apart than in that video and not as bright.Moving west to East.

I definitely saw it. I was in a dark area between lake Oconee and Crawfordville. Me and my wife were freaking out.

Saw them tonight as well, they were traveling north to south, were pretty visible from the al/ga line.

Have to look up the orbit path and see if I can catch them. That's be cool to see.

It was Elon Musk's Starlink. Here's a tracker with Atlanta coordinates. You can enter your own. Should be visible at my location at 9:43 tomorrow if it's clear

Thanks, Paleo. I'll try to be out to catch it tomorrow night.
