The first (and largest as I recall) one didn't move, so if anything it had to be a celestial body.

The next two together were too close to each each other to be satellites, and they were apparently moving at the same velocity and along the same trajectory. The light of each was brighter than I've seen on any plane that isn't moving toward me with its head light on.


Scifi frauds. SF illuminates.
