Hello freepers, need some help figuring out what my wife and i just saw in the nighttime skies over rural western wisconsin. To be honest we are a bit stunned and baffled:
At approximately 8:56pm central time, we were standing on our lake dock after closing up chicken coop for the night. My wife looked up and westward into the clear night sky:
"look, a satellite - wait, another...now another"
In total, 23 total "satellites" went from west to east directly overhead. They were perfectly spaced out, and in a perfect line (precision). zero sound. i say "satellite" because they moved just like you would see a nighttime satellite, a steady light traveling smoothly with zero sound and no blinking.
The formation disappeared on the east horizon within approx 60 seconds of us seeing them.
After about 10 minutes of gawking upwards we the noticed a contrail marking the path they had traveled. Interestingly, the contrail “start” point did not extend back to western origination horizon, but instead started roughly over our approximate rural area- my only theory is it’s as if as they entered our atmosphere roughly by our town.
Elon musk? Military? there is a military base approximately 90 min SE from us, but was not in the direction of the objects’ flight path.
Appreciate any ideas or info! Freegards-
Well half good, half bad. I’ll keep considering all my options. Thanks for finding that for me.
Nevada has a variety of Alien drivers license and Area 51 badges novelty items.
Anything other than dial-up is better than sattelite aka Hughe$net.
I don’t know enough to weight the cost/benefit against infrared or cable.
At and r cellular towers finally speed up service late night. Then slow down/ throttle during the day.
Huges$ was/is similar: Virtually unlimited 0200-0600.
Fiji Hill: Probably airliners flying at their cruising altitude.
Reading comprehension: FAIL!

I’ve met him. Fairly nice guy.
So they were most likely flying saucers flown by space aliens coming down here from Mars.
Starlink!
Starlink. Got some photos from a friend in the Atlanta area who saw the same thing a couple weeks ago.
Everyone needs to learn...
Do not look up at the sky...ever.
You might see squirrels or other distractions!
Funny. Law enforcement is already used to “aliens” at the border. Just farther away origins now.
I remember now I saw some tourist attraction store on some show that was in business selling things devoted to extraterrestrial souvenirs.
What were you smoking at the time?
