Chain of lights

Friday night, May 24, at approximately 11:30pm to midnight, in Weld, Maine. Could not believe my eyes, saw a chain of white lights on perfectly clear night. At first glance though it was a shooting star, then a comet, then jet exhaust that realized none of those. I could not determine the height due to the unlit area matched the dark sky, it looked like it was in space. Looking at arm's length about three feet long (very large) and an inch wide. The object I saw was just dots of white lights like stars. More in the front area thinning to the middle, one light ¾ to the end and one light trailing at the end. All the lights where moving at the same speed heading west to east. The speed seemed to be about the same as a commercial jet at cruising altitude. None of these lights where blinking, they were all steady and there was no sound.
