Initial data
An eyewitness from the city of Diemen writes:
The spheres flying in a straight line glowed brighter and brighter, and then disappeared. The same color as the stars. Couple in a row around 23: 15 in Diemen (Amsterdam)
Original news
DIEMEN, NH — Lichtbollen die in 1 rechte lijn vliegend, steeds feller licht schenen en weer verdwenen. Zelfde kleur als sterren. Paar achter elkaar rond 23:15 in Diemen (Amsterdam)
Hypotheses
Satellite
Ordinary satellites, which often look like single, not very bright luminous dots moving smoothly in the night sky, are quite often mistaken for UFOs. After the Starlink satellites (near-Earth satellite systems developed by SpaceX, in order to create a cheap and high-performance satellite Internet communication channel and technical transmitters for receiving and transmitting signals from earth and orbit) were launched, it became possible to observe groups of satellites (up to 60 pieces) flying one after another.
Events
