Initial data
An eyewitness from Den Helder (North Holland) writes:
For the first time, we saw an object with a bright light flying in a straight line at a constant speed in a north-easterly direction, followed a short time later by two more bright lights that flew along the same orbit at a much higher speed. too low for a satellite and too bright, there was no sound!
Original news
DEN HELDER, NH — We zagen eerst een object, met fel licht dat in een rechte lijn met een constante snelheid in noord oostelijke richting vloog, daarop volgde na korte tijd nog twee felle lichten die met een aanzienlijke hogere snelheid in de zelfde baan overvlogen, te laag voor een satelliet en te vel licht, ook was er geen geluid hoorbaar!
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.
