Oberwator writes:

"I howled out of the house and, as always, looked at the sky. A bright "star" caught my attention, and I started looking at it. […] It was five times brighter than the brightest star and moved towards it quite slowly, because I watched it for about 2-3 minutes, and I don't have a very large field of view." 

The woman claims that the movement of the object was definitely different from the plane, which was also visible in the sky at the moment. The UFO was at a very high altitude and was moving "at a snail's pace."

(małopolskie)Oberwatorka pisze: „Wyszłam z domu i jak zawsze popatrzyłam w niebo. Moją uwagę zwróciła mocno świecąca ‘gwiazda’, więc zaczęłam ją obserwować. […] Świeciła pięć razy jaśniej niż najjaśniejsza gwiazda i przemieszczała się w mogą stronę dość wolno, gdyż obserwowałam to jakieś 2-3 min., a nie mam zbyt dużego pola widzenia.” Kobieta twierdzi, że ruch obiektu był zdecydowanie inny od samolotu, który również był w tej chwili widoczny na niebie. UFO znajdowało się na bardzo dużej wysokości i poruszało się w „ślimaczym tempie”.

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.
