I saw my first Starlink train about a month ago totally by accident. I was out at night with my 50 power motion corrected binoculars, looking at the comet, and I saw satellite go by right in front of my field of view.
Given that my field of view on this binocular is fairly narrow, that was a little surprising, but pretty cool. However, a second later, I saw another one, then another one all going in the same direction.
I immediately assumed it had to be Starlink, as I’ve never seen that many satellites in a row going in the same direction at the same time, but still… I did think that was a pretty cool thing to see.
They are really striking
