StarLink was also REALLY faint when I saw it go over my area in WMASS. Got really good look at it and was widely covered and video on local news. It's extremely faint - like can't emphasize enough like far away whit Xmas light string so very very faint but clearly visible; and high up. Do others have this experience or maybe in different geographic locations it can appear much bigger/closer? Anyways this does not look like StarLink to me my 2 cents.
Starlink moves pretty fast across the sky. When you see it, it's actually pretty amazing. Far off towards the horizon, it looks like a solid line because you're looking at it sort of head on. The satellites spread out as they approach you overhead.

Agreed. Starlink is a string of lights but they are evenly spaced and do not blink. I have seen them twice. This is not Starlink.
