Connected lights in the sky.

I went to take my dogs outside and noticed a tight cluster of lights over my garage at 9:49pm Eastern standard time. The cluster was so large and close that it caught my eyes. I went inside to put a warmer hat on and jacket then rushed back outside at 9:51 Eastern standard time to see what I thought might be fireworks or possibly a meteor shower. I knew that this cluster was a unique occurrence because I have done this same thing almost every night for years and have never seen anything like this. I started to really focus on this cluster and realized that I wasn’t sure exactly what I was looking at. The lights were coming collectively straight in the sky over my garage moving in the direction toward my house. The color was yellow and had a shimmer to it similar to a banner being dragged behind a airplane. A dull roaring became louder and louder as the lights passed over. I thought that maybe an airplane had decided to string up some lights on the back of a banner, however there were no airplane. The sound was so apparent that I looked to see if it were in a different spot because I knew something was making the sound but couldn’t see what it was. I noticed I didn’t have any air traffic I could see. That also struck me as odd because I see so many airplane’s every night and I live about 15 minutes from the airport. I started to record the lights but couldn’t get a good focus and my camera stopped recording. My phone then locked and froze. I’ve never seen an error on my phone happening like this. It simply would not unlock or unfreeze for about a minute. When it did unlock and open I started recording again looking at my phone then back to the sky and I noticed the color was a little different on the screen. It seemed to take a yellow tint at first then became very white as the object passed over. The cluster was more stretched out than before but the alignment of the lights was so precise that it couldn’t be a flag or banner with lights because it seemed to float across the sky. When the lights were first seen they were moving faster but once it came over it slowed down and looked like it formed a shape. As soon as I could get a better shot and focus on it the lights looked as if they just went behind a curtain and were all gone in the blink of an eye. I looked up thinking I was officially crazy and scratched my head about what I had just seen. I thought for a few minutes and wanted to look at the videos to compare. After some looking online a bit I came across the starlink satellite pictures and they looked alike but the more I reviewed all of my information something seemed off. Directly after the lights disappear I seen 4 airplanes come out of nowhere and fly over the same part of sky like they were looking for something. The rate of speed they moved across the sky was so much faster than the large lights I watched float over. I tracked the path of starlink and it doesn’t seem to match the path of the lights in my recordings. I always look at the stars, the moon, the sky and listen to all the airplanes and helicopters at night for years. I’ve lived in this house since 2007 and see all kinds of thinks in the sky but nothing comparable to this.
