<p>My fiancé and I took our youngest sons out to sky watch at the river near by. The older of the 2 was looking up and said - &quot;look it's Santa's reindeers!&quot; All of us looked up and saw a literal straight line of what looked like hundreds of stars in a straight line, like in a formation, moving due north. They didn't come from the south, it's more like they just appeared and disappeared. Does anyone have any idea what we may have seen?</p>

Most likely it's SpaceX's Starlink satellites. For a while they will be lined up like this, until they move to their final orbits. https://vimeo.com/338361997

@Florin Andrei.  29/05 any chance to see them in line - north of Europe. If so, are their data available to some of the spotting applications and sites? Thx.
