SpaceX launching so often has me second-guessing those classic UFO tales

I always brushed off alien talk. But with so much human-made clutter overhead now, it's hard to tell what's what.

Actually, Starlink satellites are most visible right after launch (before they spread out).

Seriously! I read an article about how most UFO reports lately are just Starlink satellites (which makes total sense).

Yeah, the Starlink thing is obvious now. But what gets me is how many old sightings were probably just secret military tests we didn't know about.

My buddy freaked out last year over a line of lights, swore it was aliens lol. Turned out to be exactly what @price.ben said, just a fresh Starlink batch. Makes you wonder about all those old "UFOs" for sure.
