First, I should mention that I understand that this is a WI site, but while searching for other
possible sightings like ours, we found the August 26 sighting and were shocked to find it so
similar.
While viewing Mars in Kennebunk, ME, we noticed what appeared to be three "stars" in a large
triangle formation moving slowly and steadily across the night sky. The movement and
consistency of the pattern led us to believe that it was one object, however, we were able to
see stars between the dots of light as it moved. Regrettably, it had traveled from our sight
by the time we could tell anyone else to look at it to confirm what we were seeing. Is it
possible for a group of satellites to appear this way? Any confirmation of what this may have
been will be appreciated.
Thank you,
John E.

suburban sky. There are also the NOSS triplet satellites that could
produce such a configuration. Try:
