Domino shaped white dot formation above I-95N NY/CT leaving dotted trail behind it. I'm not one who typically believes or follows this kind of stuff but what I saw driving home from NYC on I-95N was hard to ignore or explain. Maybe someone has a rational answer for what it was. Clear as can be but very high in the sky above the highway I saw a formation of white dots. There were eight dots with a line down the center, four on each side, exactly the way a domino with 8 dots would be set up. Never losing form it slowly moved through the sky leaving a chemtrail looking trail of white dots behind it. Round white dots evenly spaced making four perfect lines of dots behind it. The older dots had dissapated leaving just a cloudy white ribbon for miles and the newer made ones stayed as dots for quite some time. The formation didn't move in a straight line, it slowly turned and twisted a bit and went in and out from a cloud all the while the trail of dots were evenly spit from it. I don't know how long it lasted. I watched it for a few minutes until I had finally driven past it. I don't know how many other drivers saw it, it was very visable. I tried to take a picture with my phone while driving but it didn't come out. I'm very curious if anyone has any idea what that was that I saw. ((NUFORC Note: Possible skywriting, we believe.
