Did anyone else see the strange lights over Yorkshire on November 9th?

I'm posting this more as a question than a full encounter, but I'm curious if anyone in the Yorkshire area saw anything odd on the evening of November 9th around 8:15 PM.

I was driving through the Pennines near Hebden Bridge when I saw a series of bright white lights arranged in a rough line formation moving slowly across the sky to the north-east. They weren't in any conventional pattern - not a helicopter, not a plane. The movement was too deliberate and the lights were too bright and too close together. They stayed visible for about 90 seconds before disappearing behind the hills.

My first thought was drones, but I've never seen drones move that way. I mentioned it to a colleague the next day and he looked at me like I'd grown a second head, but I genuinely saw something unexplained. Did anyone else catch this? Any reports on local news that I missed?

Search 'Yorkshire UFO November 9' on Reddit - there's a whole thread on r/BritishProblems (lol) about it. Loads of people reported the same thing that night. Turns out it was probably Starlink satellites, which NASA launches regularly. They look genuinely eerie when you're not expecting them. Still cool to see though!

Starlink satellites don't explain the deliberate maneuvers you're describing. Those lights are programmed to move in specific patterns. I saw similar activity over Manchester in October and it was definitely not satellite debris. The Pennines have a history of anomalous phenomena - Rendlesham Forest vibes but less documented.

They absolutely do. Starlink trains look like a string of pearls moving across the sky because they're bunched together after launch. The 'deliberate' movement is just how they orbit. Easy to mistake for something anomalous if you're not expecting it. That said, always worth reporting genuine sightings regardless.

I saw something similar over the Moors near Kielder Forest in September. Reported it to a mate who works for the MOD and he basically said 'don't worry about it'. Which is either reassuring or the most suspicious thing ever, depending on your mindset!
