Long line of planes flying over or a series of satellites?

[notagaincharlie]

We are near the South Coast and there a constant stream of lights going over, equi distant very high up?
Not on Flighttracker.

Can anyone else see them?

Also the newer versions of Starlink are being launched with less reflective coatings and sunshades on them to make them much less visible.

I saw them awhile back and got really freaked out by them until I googled what they were, it all felt very War of Worlds at the time.

Lol i'm in the North West and came in very excited around 9.30 telling DH and Ds about what i saw.
Thought it was some secret mission 😂

I saw them! Am in South east! I thought ah the aliens are coming with PPE and covid tests! 😄

i think there's another launch happening in roughly 50 mins so you might be able to see them again. @virtualastro's twitter is good for updates

Next launch is on the 23rd.

this guy says there will be another in half hour but fainter and harder to see? another one tomorrow apparently at 10pm

Yes, visible in the northwest

I don't know about these Starlink satellites, but as a general rule if thumb, a plane beacon will flash and a satellite will be a constant light.

@crambosk

They're not launches, just the next time the previously launched satellites will pass overhead.

The ones we can see at the moment will be from the last launch on the 18th of March.

@Slith ah OK, thanks!

I did not know about this and am v excited to check it out tomorrow - thank you!

My dh has got his whole office excited and they're all going to look tonight!

He asked if I'd like to be woken up to see them again - I said No

For the past few weeks there has been a bright light in the sky , it sits alone and much closer and brighter than the stars . I thought it might be a drone or some kind of satellite

They appear here tonight in East Anglia at 9.58 (ish). Getting something warm on to go out and see them. I’m fascinated.

@Allihearischasemarshallskye

If it's WNW it's probably Venus.

@Allihearischasemarshallskye near the moon? Probably Venus.

I couldn't see them! Saw two white lights moving west to east at the right time but no long line.

Nice picture...As Fixthebone says if it's high in the west in the hours after sunset then it's almost certainly Venus.

TBH the Moon doesn't help over the next few nights since it's a morning object, rising shortly before sunrise..It will however will be visible once again in the evening sky in 5 or 6 days time.

I only saw one, very faint satellite 🙁
Venus is vey bright though

So no chance tonight? Been waiting since 9:50 and haven't seen them yet.

South Wales here. We saw them last night, around 9:30pm, very odd. Definitely the StarLink satellites.

DH is out now looking for them again but the sky isn't so clear here tonight.
