Last night over South Wales, between 8 and 9pm my friend was watching the space station go over. Then he said a few minutes later he saw some very high flying (no noise) craft flying over almost in formation. He said they were all following the same flight path and all equally spaced apart. No flashing beacons so perhaps military? He though satellites at first but has never seen 5 or 6 satellites in a row. The craft were moving south east.
Anyone know what that could be. I don't have any other info. Just Interested what it could be.

He probably saw a group of Starlinks satellites, a very common sight recently.

Quite Off Topic, but "welcome back" MBH,

I was wondering if you were alright with that low/non existing post count recently.
