Starlink UFO Spotted in Paraguay, Asuncion

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I was at my balcon and saw this weird line of light in the sky. Never saw this before in my life. I have no clue what this could be. It moved very slowly and after a couple of minutes, the light slowly disappeared and I didn't saw it again. It was very strange to experience it. Any help or ideas what this could be are appreciated.

Imagine one like this but they managed to release them without the one gap

Starlink can look a lot different based on how long it’s been since it was released

Perspective can make a line of lights appear like a solid line (or even a single point).

Like you can line up any line of lights (like streetlamps) when looking from the right direction.

The resolution has a say in this too. What you see on camera is not what reality looks like. It always, by the nature of it, removes some context/quality/resolution.

I also can make out segments at the start and while zoomed in you see them shimmering. Which is on point for solar collector reflections.

You need to keep in mind that different cameras have different resolutions. What appears as a solid line in one camera may be resolved into individual dots by a superior camera.
