TL;DR Summary

Residents in the Tri-State area may have noticed a string of lights in the night sky, but it's not an alien invasion. These lights are actually satellites from Elon Musk's Starlink project. SpaceX has been launching Starlink satellites since 2019, and with weekly launches since July 2023, there are currently over 4,500 satellites in orbit. The lower orbit of these satellites makes them more visible to the human eye, and they provide broadband internet services, particularly beneficial for rural areas.
