Time of Sighting: 9:45 PM PDT
Description: I saw this too, North of Salem, OR, USA at 9:45 PM on Aug. 20, 2022. It was clearly over 16 separate lights in a straight line, with the brightest at each end. They were far above commercial air traffic, and quiet. They were moving NE much faster than the rotation of the earth. The line appeared to be 1 to 5 miles long, depending on distance. I watched for 2 minutes before it started turning dark red, then darkening beginning at the leading end, when it appeared to vanish behind something. There were no clouds visible. It was a clear night with many stars around it.
Note: This is one of many recent sightings of Star-Link communication satellites from the West coast of the U.S.

I had a sighting, perhaps the very one you had. The date was also 8-20-22 at 9:45 PM. There were clear skies, twinkling stars and it was warm. My boyfriend and I were looking at a string of lights in the sky that was accompanied by a very large craft. It made no noise and disappeared into a void of nothingness.
