Strange lights in the morning dark sky

[leon]

Good Morning Guys,
I get up pretty early every morning and I have just now come inside after having a look at the morning dark sky, at about 6am

As i looked up I noticed at least 10 to 12 lights about the same brightness as a ordinary star in a dead straight line evenly spaced and moving in that line toward the East Horizon and disappearing.

They, the lights were moving relatively slow, not flashing like a plane so I just wonder what it might have been.

I am not a believer in UFO's and that sort of Hocus Pocus so what have i spotted, maybe someone here might have the answer.

Thank You in advance.

Leon

More than likely Starlink, You can usually see up to 30 or so a day or two after launch, usually about second magnitude, but once in their permanent orbital height they are a lot fainter. I've seen it on numerous occasions.

There was an Starlink launch from Vandenburg earlier today , the trail of satellites passed over S.E. Aust a few minutes after 6:00am this morning. Obviously that is what you witnessed. They will be doing another flyover of the S.E. this evening from about 6:00 to 6:04pm. From my location they will be following the Milky Way from Puppis , just below Crux , on to Sagittarius .
Could make for a photo op, supposed to be clear tonight.

Thank you for your responses, if clear as suggested I just might try for an image, thank you.
