Mysterious train of lights spotted in the sky above Sangameshwar town in Ratnagiri a few days ago have surprised many as they had never seen anything like this before. There have been several speculations, including that the lights could be UFOs, comets, shooting stars. But could it be that the train of lights were the Starlink satellites of Elon Musk’s SpaceX? While it is unsure whether it was a satellite or something else, people interested in space science are curious to know what exactly the lights travelling in upwards direction are. 

On Monday, Kaushal Dubey along with his friends were sitting on a hillock close to village Chikhali-Dhanawde Wadi near Sangameshwar in Ratnagiri district of Maharashtra when he spotted something unusual. “I was sitting on a hillock along with three friends and between 6.30 pm-7.30 pm we saw something in the sky that I had never seen before. We noticed a straight train of light moving upward. First we thought that it was shooting stars, UFOs, comets etc., but the lights that we saw in the sky were moving up in a straight line. It will be interesting to know what exactly it was” Dubey said.
