Duration: seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Norfolk, MA, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object, Emitted beams

July 31 @ approximately 10 and 10:30 pm watching the night sky and saw two separate balls of light very large streak across the sky. I have a great binocular that are for viewing the sky at night but this I saw with my own eyes. My husband didn’t see either event.

I also am wondering what a satellite looks like because there was an object I saw with the binoculars that had a light in the middle nine lights on either side with bright lights emanating out of the end lights like a flash light and three lights on the outside centered with the middle light.

Is this a satellite? I can’t be sure but the two balls of light streaking across the sky came from that direction.

Plus does the satellite stay stationary?

I put together a diagram but the light is emitted from the longer rows of lights outward and the middle light was more of a blue smaller light. It was stationary for most of the night. But balls of light streaking from that direction happened quickly.

Not sure if it came from this object.
