Description of SightingThe object was moving in a north-northwest direction. It looked like a straight ribbon and yellow in color.It was about 15 degrees above horizon. Speed about like a satellite. The object looked about 3 degrees long and 1/4 degree high. UAPSRS ASSESSMENT: Witness description matches observational characteristics of a SpaceX Starlink satellite “train” as it appears shortly after launch. Earlier on the date of the sighting, a batch of SpaceX Starlink satellites were sent to low earth orbit on a Falcon 9 rocket launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, marking the company’s 100th Falcon 9 flight of 2025. UAPSRS concludes with high confidence that sighting description provided by witness conveys observation of the newly launched Starlink train on that date.
