Netherlands

A strip was seen above the town of Maasbommel with the naked eye. Through binoculars, it looked like 8 perfect light points in a row.

The eyewitness clarifies:

I was walking my dog when I saw a streak of light still hanging low over the horizon. I didn't know what it was, so when I got home, I decided to look through binoculars. this made me see that they were 8 perfect sharp points (like, for example, a star would look through binoculars). 

After that, I took several pictures, including one with binoculars. when I went to look again around 23:15, it was no longer visible (the moon and Venus are also no longer visible, so it's probably also because of the clouds).

The most likely explanation according to ufomeldpunt.nl - Starlink satellites.

Original news

Met blote oog, een streep. door verekijker 8 perfecte licht punten op een rij

MAASBOMMEL, GD — Ik ging met de hond wandelen toen ik een still hanged light streep laag aan de horizon zag. ik wist niet wat het was, dus toen ik terug thuis was besloot ik met mijn verekijker te kijken. hierdoor zag ik dat het 8 perfecte scherpe puntjes waren (net als bijvoorbeeld een ster door een verekijker er uit zou zien). hier na heb ik een aantal fotos te maken waronder een met een door de verekijker. toen ik rond 23:15 weer ging kijken was het niet meer zichtbaar (de maan en venus ook niet meer, dus vermoedelijk kant dat ook door de bewolking komen).

Meest waarschijnlijke verklaring

Starlink satellieten

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Objects in motion, captured on a long exposure

Most often this artifact is called skayfish if the lens gets a passing bird or insect. It is based on the discrepancy between the speed of the video and the frequency of the flapping of insect wings. Essentially, each video drops a few strokes of the wings of an insect, which when viewed looks like "arrow", provided with long protuberances. The motion of the insect by its translucent body seems to "boom" and vibration of the wings give the appearance of bumps.

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 were launched (a system of near-Earth satellites 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), it became possible to observe groups of satellites (up to 60 pieces) flying one after another.
